A content administration system receives user identification information
from a terminal device via the Internet. The content administration
system then specifies content administration information storage means
corresponding to the received user identification information. The
content administration system acquires object path information correlated
to sharing permission information from a content administration
information storage means of another unspecified user. The content
administration system then acquires an icon image from the icon image
storage means. The content administration system then makes display
control information for the content administration screen containing the
icon leading to the object based on the acquired icon image and the
acquired object path information. The content administration system
transmits the made display control information to the terminal device via
the Internet. As a result, an administrator of a web site does not have
to add a content path corresponding to an HTML file when adding content
to a web site administered by themselves or when sharing content with
another web site.
