First Claim
1. A system comprising:
- at least one terminal and a server in radio communication therewith, the at least one terminal includinga transceiver arranged to send radio packets to and receive radio packets from the server;
a browser application for displaying content, arranged to initiate a first application by accessing a first item associated with the first application using a first content identifier, the first application being provided by the combination of the first item and further items each of which is accessible using an individual content identifier, and each of which comprises content or means for linking to content; and
a user interface connected to the browser application having a display for displaying content and user input means;
the server having a transceiver for sending and receiving radio packets from the terminaland a storage for storing content, accessible for transfer to the terminal, the stored content comprising the first item accessible using the first content identifier and the further items, each of which is accessible using individual content identifiers, and each of which comprises content or means for linking to content, the first item on transfer to the terminal including identifying means for identifying to the browser the content identifiers of the further items; and
link means for automatically providing a link from the first item to each of a plurality of further items, each link using an individual content identifier, and wherein activation of each link provides for access to the further items and thereby a functionality of the first application, wherein the server is arranged to asynchronously transfer the first item to the terminal.

Abstract
A system comprising at least one terminal and a server in radio communication therewith. The terminal comprises a transceiver, arranged to send radio packets to and receive radio packets from the server, and a browser application for displaying content, arranged to initiate a first application by accessing a first item associated with the first application using a first content identifier. The application is provided by the combination of the first item and further items each of which is accessible using an individual content identifier, and each of which comprises content or means for linking to content. The terminal further comprises a user interface connected to the browser having a display for displaying content and user input means. The server has a transceiver for sending and receiving radio packets from the terminal and a storage for storing content, accessible for transfer to the terminal.

41. A server for providing and updating a first application on a terminal via radio communication, comprising:
-
a transceiver for sending and receiving radio packets from the terminal and a storage means for storing content, accessible for transfer to the terminal, the stored content comprising a first item accessible using the first content identifier and further items, each of which is accessible using individual content identifiers, and each of which comprises content or means for linking to content, the first item including identifying means for identifying to a browser the content identifiers of the further items; and link means for automatically providing a link from the first item to each of a plurality of further items, each link using an individual content identifier, wherein activation of the links provides for access to the further items and thereby a functionality of the first application, wherein the server is arranged to asynchronously transfer the first item to the terminal.

42. A method of providing functionality of an application in a browser of a terminal by creating a hierarchy of inter-linked items by transferring the items over a radio link from a server, wherein entrance to said hierarchy is through a first item, accessible through the browser using a first content identifier, the first item identifying further items in the hierarchy accessible through the browser using content identifiers and providing for links to the further items using the content identifiers, comprising the steps of:
-
initiating the application in the terminal by accessing the first item using its content identifier through the browser; transferring the first item from the server to the terminal; using the content identifiers of the further items in the first item to transfer the further items from the server to the terminal; and creating links between the first item and the further items, so that a functionality of the application results from activation of the links and wherein the server is arranged to asynchronously transfer the first item to the terminal.
