A terminal that facilitates efficient, flexible and user-friendly navigation of a plurality of program services provided by an associated television network. The terminal may be embodied in a home communication terminal (HCT) or other suitable device externally connected to a television or monitor, or as an integral component of a television or a computer. The terminal receives a user input identifying a user selected ordering scheme for the program services provided by the associated television system. The terminal either generates a display table or utilizes a previously generated display table, which in either case maps (i.e., orders) the program services as defined by a service table according to the selected ordering scheme for browsing by the subscriber. The ordering scheme is based upon at least one service attribute of the service information, such as the short description, long description, or service application associated with each program service. |
