Abstract

A link-processing device for displaying a summary of linked information before the link is called up is disclosed. The link processing device includes an acquisition module, an extracting module, and a displaying module. The acquisition module acquires structured information containing: link-generating information for generating links between multiple resources; and predetermined supplemental information indicating characteristics of the resource. A setting is provided for whether all resources are to be acquired or not. Based on this setting at least one resource is acquired and displayed. If all resources are to be acquired, the extracting module extracts a section of each resource except for the resource display object and/or extracts from the structured information supplemental information regarding each resource except for the resource display object. If any of the resources have been acquired, supplemental information for each of the resources other than the acquired resources is extracted from the structured information. The displaying module displays extracted information for each resource.
