Abstract
A method and computer program product is described for displaying files associated with multiple hypertext links selected from a Web page. A user selects a set of links from a Web page that contains multiple links, and the linked files are displayed in a preferred sequence without having to repeatedly return to the original Web page. In addition, files associated with these links can be downloaded while the first links are being displayed and viewed by the user. Thus, both the usability and the performance in Web browsing is improved.
