Application 09/791,152
INVENTION
The invention is directed to a method of presenting a web page with a
plurality of links. If the page is cluttered with many links close together and
does not meet a proximity policy identifying spacing between links, the page
is reformatted, inserting space between the links to meet the proximity
policy. See Figures 5A, 5B, page 6, and page 17 of Appellants’
Specification. Claim 1 is representative of the invention and reproduced
below:
1. A computer implemented method in a computer
system for presenting a page, the method comprising:
determining whether the page falls within a proximity
policy;
responsive to a determination that the page falls outside
of the proximity policy, reformatting the page to fall within the
proximity policy, to form a reformatted page, wherein the
proximity policy defines a minimal spacing between respective
links within the page; and
presenting the reformatted page.
