Abstract

A system for displaying the results of a search provided by one of two different search systems enabling continuous searching. One search system includes a search takeover data production command used to output search takeover data articles from the search. The other search system includes a search takeover data reading command used to read search takeover data. A document identifier correspondence table associates the identifiers specified in the search takeover data. When a user clicks a search system transfer instruction button in one search system, the search takeover data producing command is executed to produce search takeover data which is passed to the other search system. The latter search system regards the list of identifiers of articles which was passed by the search takeover data reading command as the search results, and thus operates continuously.
