Methods, systems and computer program products for assisted browser navigation
First Claim
1. A method of assisting navigation of a first browser executing on a first data processing system, comprising:
- navigating, responsive to a second browser executing on a second data processing system, to identify information to be displayed using the first browser on the first data processing system;
receiving, from the second browser, a request for an identifier to associate with the identified information;
dynamically generating an identifier responsive to the request for an identifier; and
associating the dynamically generated identifier with the identified information to be displayed using the first browser such that the identified information may be retrieved using the identifier.

Abstract
Assisting navigation of a first browser executing on a first data processing system is provided by navigating, responsive to a second browser executing on a second data processing system, to identify information to be displayed using the first browser on the first data processing system. An identifier is request to associate with the identified information and the identifier is dynamically generated responsive to the request for an identifier. The identifier is associated with the identified information to be displayed using the first browser such that the identified information may be retrieved using the identifier.
