Abstract: The invention relates to a method for loading, storing and presenting web pages, by which means the required band widths and the time taken to load web pages for an application are reduced. To this end, components or information elements separate from web pages are provided with indicators by which means the expiry dates can be deduced. The indicators are evaluated by the application which may be a browser. In this way, the application can reload only the updated data/components from the original source. Information elements which are constant over a long period of time can be completed or loaded by the application from a memory associated with the same. The loading times and data quantities for a data transmission from an original source to an application can thus be considerably reduced. The invention also relates to an information system which uses said method, preferably in a motor vehicle.
