First Claim
Patent Images
1. A graphical user interface, for displaying information pertaining to a set of travel options, the graphical user interface comprising:
- a summary tabular region comprising;
a first dimension of the summary tabular region associated with a first criterion, the first dimension divided into portions corresponding to different values of the first criterion included in the set of travel options; and
a second dimension of the summary tabular region associated with a second criterion, the second dimension divided into portions corresponding to different values of the second criterion included in the set of travel options; and
a cell disposed within the summary region at the intersection of a first portion of the first dimension and a first portion of the second dimension, the cell representing a subset of the set of travel options that have a value for the first criterion that corresponds to the first portion of the first dimension and a value for the second criterion that corresponds to the first portion of the second dimension.

Abstract
A graphical user interface for a travel planning system is described. The graphical user interface is implemented as a web page and includes a tabular region of the graphical user interface that displays summarized travel options and comprises a plurality of cells that act as controls. The interface also includes a second region that displays selected travel options resulting from filtering a set of travel options in accordance with a control actuated in the tabular region.

7. A method for generating a graphical user interface, the method comprising:
-
receiving a set of travel options resulting from a query;
displaying a first dimension of the summary tabular region associated with a first criterion, the first dimension divided into portions corresponding to different values of the first criterion included in the set of travel options;
displaying a second dimension of the summary tabular region associated with a second criterion, the second dimension divided into portions corresponding to different values of the second criterion included in the set of travel options; and
displaying a graphical element at the intersection of a first portion of the first dimension and a first portion of the second dimension, the graphical element representing a subset of the set of travel options that have a value for the first criterion that corresponds to the first portion of the first dimension and a value for the second criterion that corresponds to the first portion of the second dimension. - View Dependent Claims (8, 9, 10, 11, 12)

13. A computer program product residing on a computer readable medium for generating a graphical user interface that displays a summary of travel options, the computer program product comprising instructions for causing a computer to:
-
a first dimension of a summary tabular region associated with a first criterion, the first dimension divided into portions corresponding to a different values of the first criterion included in a received set of travel options resulting from a query;
a second dimension of a summary tabular region associated with a second criterion, the second dimension divided into portions corresponding to different values of the second criterion included in the received set of travel options resulting from the query; and
a graphical element at the intersection of a first portion of the first dimension and a first portion of the second dimension, the graphical element representing a subset of the set of travel options that have a value for the first criterion that corresponds to the first portion of the first dimension and a value for the second criterion that corresponds to the first portion of the second dimension. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19)
