Abstract
Extracting tagged data items that may be associated with results of a search in an electronic document and presenting the tagged data items through a graphical user interface (GUI). The tagged data may be presented in a separate window displaying search results. The tagged data items may be presented adjacent to individual search results or at the top of a window displaying search results. The displayed tagged items may be presented as hyperlinks that enable a user to move to a section of an electronic document containing that tagged data item. The tagged data items, which may include names, physical addresses, e-mail addresses, universal resource locators (URLs), dates, and telephone numbers, may represent a subset of the tagged data item categories contained in the electronic document.
