Browser-based electronic messaging

摘要

In a computerized method for messaging, a Web page includes an embedded tag specifying a message extension program. The Web page is requested from a Web server by a Web browser of a first client computer connected to the Web server computer by a communications network. The extension program corresponding to the message tag is retrieved. A multimedia message is recorded as digital signals in a file of the client computer using the extension program. The file is sent to a second client computer as an electronic mail message.
