ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for selectively downloading components over the World-Wide-Web is provided. The preferred embodiment uses a download selection mechanism to display a download selection list to a web browser user. The list allows web user to decide which components to download and which to not download, thereby giving the web user more control over the speed of their Internet accesses. The preferred method produces a table or chart of components and allows the web user to select which components are downloaded.
