Abstract
A process and system for controlling and moving along a path containing previously accessed interactive inter- or intra-net HTML source files and bypassing certain interactive HTML source files which contain informational messages. A web browser is provided having i) a first non-interactive web browser cache for storing data from a plurality of HTML source files and a first non-interactive web browser screen access path for identifying and displaying each of the HTML source files in the first cache, and ii) a second interactive web browser cache for storing data from a plurality of HTML source files and a second interactive web browser screen access path for identifying and displaying each of the HTML source files in the second cache. A desired non-interactive HTML source file is selected, downloaded to the web browser, and stored in the non-interactive web browser cache and the non-interactive web browser screen access path. A desired interactive HTML source file for a form which presents blank spaces for entry of information at the web browser is then selected, downloaded, and stored in the non-interactive web browser cache and the non-interactive web browser screen access path. Finally, blank spaces on the desired interactive HTML source file form are filled-in; and the desired interactive HTML source file form presenting filled-in spaces is stored in the interactive web browser cache and the interactive web browser screen access path.
