Abstract

See full text

A uniquely programmed computer system, computer-implemented method, and computer readable memory embodying computer-readable detailed logic (i.e., computer readable program code) direct a computer system to display an image map having graphical objects thereon and an original appearance. At least a first portion of the graphical objects are links to other documents. The method includes the step of changing the original appearance of the first portion of the graphical objects to indicate that those graphical objects are links. This step is performed in response to user controls (e.g., a user positioning a mouse cursor) positioned on the image map.
