Abstract
A method is provided for automatically displaying context information to an information fragment with no user interaction. The method includes: displaying the fragment in a first window, wherein the window and fragment each relate to a source process; pointing with a cursor to a part of the fragment displayed in the first window; generating an event object comprising coordinates of the cursor and part of the information fragment; broadcasting the event object to the source process, wherein the only information exchange between the target process and the source process is based on the event object; interpreting the event object by the target process and generating a response by the target process; and displaying the response of the target process in a second window, wherein the second window is related to the coordinates of the cursor.
