US Patent 7137127 Method of processing information embedded in a displayed object

Information embedded in a displayed object is transferred from one browser window to another. Each of the browser windows display a Web page. The object is displayed on one of the Web pages and, by “dragging” and “dropping” the embedded information to the other Web page, a function is performed on the embedded information, such as one that converts text associated with the embedded information into an audible output. A user who has difficulty reading text displayed on a Web page can click on an image embedded in the text, or drag and drop the information embedded in the displayed image to another Web page used to perform the conversion function.
