To convert the structure of a Web page into contents that a user can
easily listen to, and for permitting the user to access and obtain
information without have to perform and navigation, in a manner similar
to listening to the radio. A designated target page is obtained from a
Web server, and a linked list for the target page is analyzed to obtain a
linked destination page. A transcoding module inserts the main content of
the linked destination page into a linked location on the target page,
and converts the page into a structure appropriate for oral reading.
Then, a VoiceXML generation module converts the target page into a
VoiceXML document, and a VoiceXML browser performs a speech response
process for the VoiceXML document. A command is input to the VoiceXML
browser orally or by using a dial key entry provided using a telephone,
and a speech from the VoiceXML browser is output to the telephone.
