Abstract

A web site map of an external site, including information permitting determination of at least one pertinent location on the site, is obtained at a rules engine. At least one rule specifying peripheral behavior in a region adjacent the at least one pertinent location on the site is also obtained at the engine. Furthermore, an indication that a peripheral device corresponding to the at least one rule is being used to browse the site is also obtained at the engine. Instructions corresponding to the at least one rule specifying the peripheral behavior in the region adjacent the at least one pertinent location on the site are dispatched from the rules engine to the peripheral device. The instructions are configured to cause a stimulus to a user of the peripheral device prior to the user attempting to consummate an action on the web site.
