ABSTRACT:
An apparatus and method for creating and automatically refreshing a composite web page. The present invention is a method, implementable in computer software, for selecting areas of interest from a plurality of web pages. The user creates a boundary around the areas of interest on each web page. The area inside the boundary, referred to as an information unit, remains visible while the area outside of the boundary becomes transparent. The user may then combine the plurality of information units together on a canvas web page. The user may then rearrange the information units on the canvas web page by dragging the information units to their intended destination. When the user has satisfactorily arranged the information units, the user may finalize the canvas web page into a composite web page. The invention may then refresh the composite web page automatically or upon user request.
