Abstract: A method and system for efficiently and quickly displaying network web page information and performing cross-network functions, such as applets, in multiple languages, in which web page code strings to be transmitted are dynamically composed to include textual information in a preselected language. As the web page information is transmitted to the user for display, the information is dynamically built using template information common to all users, regardless of language, and appropriately inserted information for text in the language selected. The proper language text insertion occurs by virtue of special tags within the template for the page selected. A previously determined language selection, which occurs by user input or automatic determination, results in the text file for the selected language being loaded into the server memory supporting the web page to be transmitted.

Abstract: A system capable of seamlessly integrating Internet messaging services with an “affiliate” Web site in which authentication and registration of each user takes place between Web servers, without the need for additional logon sequences with additional usernames and passwords, and is not detectable to the user. The messenger system also provides for customization of the messenger interface in a manner that helps to generate an appearance that is consistent with that of the affiliate site's. Additional customization features are also available such as ad frame space and language selection.
