Abstract: A display template server supplies, to an information communications terminal via a communications network, a display template for displaying a plurality of contents on the information communications terminal. The server includes (i) a template storage section that stores original templates each including display area specifying information that specifies a plurality of display areas and (ii) a command storage section that stores change instruction information instructing a change in the display areas. Receiving content information, the server selects, from the template storage section, an original template corresponding to the received content information. The server synthesizes the original template with the received content information, and further synthesizes the template with predetermined change instruction information acquired from the command storage section. As a result, the display template is generated.
