Markup language edit method, record medium recording browser, and print system
To display an HTML document on a display ( 51 ), a browser interprets only display tags and ignores print tags. To interpret the tags and display the HTML document, the browser transmits a request for transferring four image files (A 1 , B 1 , C 1 , and D 1 ) to a WWW server ( 40 ) and displays the image files on the display ( 51 ). When the user clicks on a print button displayed on the display ( 51 ) by the browser, the browser interprets tags used for print, transmits a request for transferring four image files (A 2 , B 2 , C 2 , and D 2 ) to the WWW server ( 40 ), and prints the four image files on a printer ( 80 ).
