Abstract
A system, method, and computer program product are provided for causing display of a first set of representations of a first set of hyperlinks. In operation, a first input from a user is received indicating a selection of one of the first set of hyperlink representations and causes, in response to receiving the first input, display of a second set of representations of a second set of hyperlinks. Further, a second input from the user is received indicating a selection of one of the second set of hyperlink representations, and causes, in response to receiving the second input, navigation to a destination specified by the selected one of the second set of hyperlink representations.
Claims20
A computer program product embodied on a non-transitory computer-readable medium, comprising:
- computer code for causing display of a first set of representations of a first set of hyperlinks in connection with a web page, without any images being used in the display of the set of one or more representations of the first set of hyperlinks, and that includes a second set of representations of a second set of hyperlinks that are pre-downloaded with the web page and displayed immediately below a corresponding one of the first set of representations in a menu format, wherein the second set of hyperlinks are preloaded and initially hidden;
- computer code for allowing receipt of a first input from a user indicating a selection of one of the first set of hyperlink representations;
- computer code for causing, in response to receiving the first input, a substantially immediate display of the second set of representations of the second set of hyperlinks that are pre-downloaded with the web page such that the second set of representations of the second set of hyperlinks are displayed in a same window as at least one of the hyperlinks of the first set of representations of the first set of hyperlinks;
- computer code for visually emphasizing a first hyperlink of the second set of hyperlinks in response to a second input from the user, wherein the visual emphasis is updated based on an update to the second input;
- computer code for allowing receipt of a third input from the user indicating a selection of one of the second set of hyperlink representations;
- and
- computer code for causing, in response to receiving the third input, navigation to a destination specified by the selected one of the second set of hyperlink representations;
- wherein each of the display of the first set of representations of the first set of hyperlinks and the display of the second set of representations of the second set of hyperlinks that are pre-downloaded with the web page, are performed without requiring an additional access to a server.
