In a multi-media data communication system, there are in a server a plurality of user graphic interface (GUI) structures (121, 122, 123) which are different in metaphor image from each other but function to provide the same service. A service request including a metaphor designating data for designating a specific one of the plurality of GUI structures and a terminal identifier of a request issuing terminal equipment (2-1) of a plurality of terminal equipments is issued from the request issuing terminal equipment (2-1) to the server (1) via a bidirectional communication line (3). The server (1) determines whether the request issuing terminal equipment (2-1) is allowed to receive a serve and whether the service request includes the metaphor designating data when it is determined that the request issuing terminal equipment (2-1) is allowed to receive service. When the service request includes the metaphor designating data, the server (1) transmits the specific one of the plurality of GUI structures (121,122, 123) to the request issuing terminal equipment (2-1) in response to the service request. The request issuing terminal equipment (2-1) designates a specific service using the transmitted GUI structure transmitted from the server (1) and the server (1) provides the specific service designated based on the transmitted GUI structure by the request issuing terminal equipment (2-1). Thus, the request issuing terminal equipment can receives the specific service from the server. <IMAGE> |
