A method and apparatus for marking Web pages for later revisiting the Web
pages are provided. With the method and apparatus, data structures are
provided in the Web site server for tracking information regarding the
Web pages associated with the Web sites, users that have visited the Web
site, what pages were visited by the users, and portions of the web pages
that were marked by the users. This information is maintained by the Web
site server so that, upon subsequent visits to the Web site server, the
marked portions of the Web pages visited by the user may be identified
for special processing by the Web browser of the client device being used
to access the Web site. Such special processing may include conspicuously
identifying the marked portions in a display of the Web browser,
providing the ability to jump to marked portions of the Web pages,
displaying only the marked portions of the Web pages, and the like.
