When the browser 30 is started (step 101) and the address of the Web page is accessed (step 102), the H is sent from the client machine 20 to the server machine 10.
A TML data transmission request is made (step 10).
3).

Next, the server machine 10 receiving the transmission request transmits the HTML data and the data other than the image / sound requested to be transmitted to the client machine 20 (step 104).

Next, the client machine 20 expands the HTML data received from the server machine 10 on the Web browser 30 (step 105), and then the HTML.
The expansion instruction search processing unit 21a in the control device searches whether or not the expansion instruction data of the image / voice data exists in the data (step 106). If the expansion instruction data is detected here, the image / audio data search processing unit 21b searches the external recording medium for the image / audio data according to the expansion instruction, and reads the data (step 1
07), the image / audio data expansion processing unit 21c expands the image / audio data on the Web browser 30 (step 108).

Thereafter, the client machine 20 requests the server machine 10 to send data other than the image / sound (step 109), and the server machine 10 sends the data other than the image / sound (step 110).
The client machine 20 expands the received data other than the image / sound on the web browser 30, and completes the display of the web page (step 111).

On the other hand, if the expansion command data is not detected in step 106, there is no image / sound data to be expanded, so a request for transmission of data other than the image / sound is made in step 109, and then step The data other than the image / sound transmitted from the server machine 10 at 110 is expanded on the Web browser 30, and step 111
The display of the web page is completed at.

As described above, images with a large data capacity
The voice data is not distributed from the server machine 10 to the client machine 20 via the communication network 50, and only the data such as HTML having a small data capacity is distributed from the server machine 10. Therefore, the load on the network is reduced, and the Web Reduce the time required to display a page. Further, by reducing the distribution data from the server, it is possible to eliminate the difference due to the environment of each client machine. Further, even when displaying the same Web page for the second time and thereafter, the Web page can be displayed at high speed without putting pressure on the resource (magnetic disk capacity) of the client machine.

For example, by adopting such a display processing method in an electronic manual such as a dictionary or an encyclopedia, or in a map or a traffic route search software which has been remarkably made Web in recent years, a remarkable effect is exhibited. For example, in the case of an electronic manual, image data such as figures and tables for which update requests are relatively small may be stored in an external recording medium, and text data for which update requests are frequently made may be distributed from a server machine via the Internet. Also in maps and traffic route search software, there are almost no update requests for image data themselves, but update requests for text-based information such as congestion information and timetables frequently occur. Therefore, also in this case, the image data may be stored in the external recording medium, and the text data or the like that is frequently requested to be updated may be distributed from the server machine via the Internet. As described above, in the situation where the data is regularly updated and the latest information is constantly required, the effect of adopting the method of the present invention is remarkable.
