Embodiment Construction

[0024]Referring now to FIG. 1, a block diagram illustrating an application operating environment for one embodiment of a system or method for link injection according to the present invention is shown. The application environment, indicated generally by reference numeral 10, includes a number of computers 12 which may be linked together either directly as represented by numeral 14, or indirectly as represented by numeral 16, via one or more computer networks. In one embodiment, the present invention is used to automatically deliver links over a wide area network such as the Internet. Of course, the present invention may also be used to provide link delivery to computers connected via a local area network, such as network 14.

[0025]As represented in FIG. 1, computers 12 may be utilized by different users for a wide variety of computing tasks or functions. For example, computers 12 may include a laptop computer 18 which provides information to a mobile user via a selective or removable...

Abstract

A system and method for providing links to a browser program running on a computer connected to a network include receiving a request from the browser program to transfer a file representing a home page for display in the browser program, and determining a storage location on the computer for links used by the browser program. The system and method may include requesting permission to modify links used by the browser program prior to transferring a list of links to the storage location on the computer for subsequent use by the browser in retrieving information from the network. The list of links may be statically or dynamically generated with one or more links provided by a link server on the network. In one embodiment, accounting information relative to the number and type of links transferred to the user's computer is collected and may be forwarded to an associated billing computer located on the network.

Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS[0001]This application is a continuation of U.S. application Ser. No. 10 / 624,115 filed Jul. 21, 2003, which is a divisional of U.S. application Ser. No. 09 / 503,533 filed Feb. 14, 2000, now U.S. Pat. No. 6,606,654, issued Aug. 12, 2003. These applications are hereby incorporated by reference in their entirety.TECHNICAL FIELD[0002]The present invention relates to a system and method for delivering multiple structured links to a user to aid in subsequent retrieval of networked information.BACKGROUND ART[0003]As computers become more powerful and less expensive, the amount and variety of information available to users continues to grow. Increasing computing power has enabled the development of more sophisticated and easier-to-use interfaces that extend the utility of computers beyond researchers and scientists to the average user seeking information. Indeed, the pervasiveness of the Internet is largely attributable to the development of computer so...
