System for recording world wide web browsing sessions navigation on a real-time basis and for subsequently displaying the recorded sessions as surrogate browsing sessions with user enabled real-time modification
First Claim
1. In a World wide Web (Web) communication network with user access via a plurality of data processor controlled interactive receiving display stations for displaying received hypertext documents of at least one display page containing text, images and a plurality of embedded hyperlinks, each hyperlink being user selectable to access and display a respective linked hypertext document, a system for generating surrogate Web browsing sessions comprising:
- means enabling a user to interactively navigate the Web through a sequence of linked hypertext documents in a browsing session at a receiving display station;
means for recording on a real-time basis said interactive navigation of said user in said browsing session;
means enabling a subsequent user to follow the path of said recorded navigation on a real-time basis in a surrogate browsing session on a display device;
means enabling said subsequent user following said path of said recorded navigation in said surrogate session to modulate the real-time of said navigation on said display device; and
means enabling said subsequent user to select a recorded but previously unselected hyperlink to thereby access a linked hypertext document.

Abstract
An implementation for the generation of a surrogate Web browsing session at a Web receiving display station by a user who does the basic browsing or searching for a principal user, e.g. the physically limited individual or the executive/professional ordering the browsing session. A user to is enabled to interactively navigate the Web through a sequence of linked hypertext documents in a browsing session at a receiving display station in combination with recording on a real-time basis, keystroke by keystroke and mouse point and click by point and click, page by page and selected hyperlink by selected hyperlink, the interactive navigation of said user in said browsing session.
