Abstract

It is, therefore, an object of the present invention to provide a structure and method for a system for creating bookmarks of pages found within a network, including a graphic user interface adapted to receive a bookmark address within the network, and an automatic page creator that creates a page within the network listing the bookmark addresses. The graphic user interface includes a bookmark address input field and a comment field. The graphic user interface also includes a comment group selection menu which produces a plurality of comment classifications. The page creator creates the page to restrict access to the comment classifications. The page creator can be a web browser intermediary. The menu bar is adapted to launch the graphic user interface and the menu bar appears concurrently with a web browser.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
What is claimed is:  
     
         1 . A system for creating bookmarks of pages found within a network comprising: 
 a graphic user interface adapted to receive a bookmark address within said network; and    an automatic page creator adapted to create a page within said network listing said bookmark addresses.    
     
     
         2 . The system in  claim 1 , wherein said graphic user interface includes: 
 a bookmark address input field; and    a comment field.    
     
     
         3 . The system in  claim 2 , wherein said graphic user interface includes a comment group selection menu.  
     
     
         4 . The system in  claim 3 , wherein said comment group selection menu produces a plurality of comment classifications and said page creator is adapted to create said page to restrict access to said comment classifications.  
     
     
         5 . The system in  claim 1 , wherein said page creator comprises a web browser intermediary.  
     
     
         6 . The system in  claim 1 , further comprising a menu bar adapted to launch said graphic user interface.  
     
     
         7 . The system in  claim 6 , wherein set menu bar appears concurrently with a web browser.  
     
     
         8 . A system for printing multiple pages found in a network comprising: 
 a graphic user interface having a menu bar including a print command button;    a page controller adapted to automatically open sub-pages linked to by a primary page; and    a print controller adapted to print said primary page and said sub-pages.    
     
     
         9 . The system in  claim 8 , wherein said page controller and said print controller are activated by a single activation of said print command button.  
     
     
         10 . The system in  claim 8 , wherein said menu bar appears concurrently with an Internet browser.  
     
     
         11 . The system in  claim 8 , wherein said network comprises the Internet and said page controller opens Web pages.  
     
     
         12 . The system in  claim 8 , further comprising a level selection menu adapted to specify a number of levels of sub-pages to be opened by said page controller.  
     
     
         13 . A method for creating bookmarks of pages found within a network comprising: 
 opening a network page utilizing a browser;    activating a bookmark application;    identifying a network address as a bookmark; and    automatically creating a bookmark page on said network having said bookmark.    
     
     
         14 . The method in  claim 13 , further comprising: 
 inputting comments regarding said bookmark; and    associating said comments with said bookmark on said bookmark page.    
     
     
         15 . The method in  claim 14 , further comprising: 
 classifying said comments; and    restricting access to said comments.    
     
     
         16 . The method in  claim 13 , further comprising creating multiple bookmarks on said bookmark page.  
     
     
         17 . The method in  claim 13 , wherein a web browser intermediary is used to create said bookmark page.  
     
     
         18 . The method in  claim 13 , wherein said step of identifyng a network address comprises identifying an address of said network page as a default address.  
     
     
         19 . A method for automatically printing multiple pages found within a network comprising: 
 opening a network page utilizing a browser;    activating a print application;    automatically opening sub-pages linked to by said network page; and    printing said network page and said sub-pages.    
     
     
         20 . The method in  claim 19 , wherein said opening and said printing are performed automatically upon said activating of said print application.  
     
     
         21 . The method in  claim 19 , wherein said network comprises the Internet, and said network page comprises a web page and said sub-pages comprise Web pages linked to by said network page.  
     
     
         22 . The method in  claim 19 , further comprising automatically opening additional sub-pages linked to by said sub-pages.  
     
     
         23 . The method in  claim 19 , wherein said that opening and said printing are performed by a web browser intermediary.  
     
     
         24 . A program storage device readable by machine, tangibly embodying a program of instructions executable by the machine to perform a method for creating bookmarks of pages found within a network, said method comprising: 
 opening a network page utilizing a browser;    activating a bookmark application;    identifying a network address as a bookmark; and    automatically creating a bookmark page on said network having said bookmark.
