Abstract

See full text

A mechanism for providing contextual information for a web page. In the preferred embodiment, a browser displays multiple web pages in multiple windows in a parent-child hierarchy on a display screen. The browser maintains this hierarchical relationship by building and updating a window-list data structure, which contains information about the active windows and their web-page contents. When the user requests a change to the contents of one window, the browser updates the contents of the other windows to maintain the parent-child hierarchical relationship. In this way, the browser provides contextual information for a displayed web-page.
