Abstract

A method of accessing an electronic page on a computer system, by ascertaining that the electronic page is adapted to be displayed as a single window containing a plurality of frames (having fixed attributes), but then displaying separate windows for respective frames, and enabling one or more window operations for each of the windows, such as resizing, minimizing, maximizing, and closing each of the windows. The windowed frames can be displayed as child windows within a parent window on the display device, or in separate parent windows. The frame windowing mode can be toggled between active and inactive states. Initial attributes of the windows can be based on the frame attributes of the respective frames. These attributes can be ascertained by interpreting tags in a main computer file associated with the electronic page, e.g., an HTML file which is downloaded over the World Wide Web.
