Abstract

A system and method for interfacing screen-display telephone terminals with the Internet. A browser device located on an ADSI capable telephone platform server retrieves requested data files from an Internet site and formats the retrieved data file specifically for display on the screen-display telephone terminal. The browser also permits a link between ADSI specific applications by giving the user imbedded softkey commands which retrieve other data files including ADSI applications.
