Abstract
A computer implemented method and apparatus for enhancing access to a file and communicating a file over a communications network using an indirect link. An indirect link is a logical hyperlink identifying a file to be retrieved, not by its electronic address, but by a logical representation. The link may denote the server on which the file exists, but does not identify the file's full address. Rather, the server or a proxy machine uses a look-up table which relates a logical link to an actual electronic address. This system helps minimize broken links, since a file can still be located on the server and accessed even if it has been relocated on the server since the link was established.
