An information providing system and method and a storage medium which
provide information services to each client apparatus on which a browser
for browsing content and at least one object operate, through the
cooperation with the operation of the object. A server apparatus has a
view server for providing content to the browser, a communication server
for making communication with the object, and an application sever for
making the view server and the application server cooperate with each
other. When a read operation from the object is performed, the
communication server notifies the application server of a result of the
read operation, thereby providing synchronization between the
communication server and the view server.
