First Claim
1. An incremental paging display method used in a computer including an output module, the method comprising:
- generating display data of a plurality of page numbers for a plurality of pages, each page containing predetermined item information;
outputting said generated page numbers from the output module for scrollably displaying in a first display region of a terminal;
receiving position information about two points among the displayed page numbers specified by a user in the first display region to select a range of page numbers;
calculating the distance between the two specified points, and the distance between two consecutive page numbers displayed in the first display region;
calculating the number of the page numbers for the selected range of page numbers, based on the calculated distance between the two specified points and the calculated distance between two consecutive page numbers;
generating item display data for displaying the predetermined item information contained in a plurality of pages corresponding to the calculated number of page numbers for the selected range of page numbers; and

Abstract
A display data generation method used in a computer including an output module, includes generating display data of page numbers for scrollably displaying page numbers of a plurality of pages each containing predetermined item information, to output the display data of page numbers from the output module, retrieving page information indicating a same number of pages as a number of page numbers displayed in a distance corresponding to a distance between two points in a display region in which the page numbers are displayed when the two points are specified by the user, wherein the number of page numbers are calculated based on the distance between the two points and the distance between adjacent page numbers displayed in the display region, and generating item display data for displaying item information contained in the pages indicated in the retrieved page information, to output the item display data from the output module.
