| dc.description.abstract | A method is described for visualizing the contents of a Web site with a
hierarchical table of contents using a Java program and applet called
WebTOC. The automatically generated expand/contract table of contents
provides graphical information indicating the number of elements in
branches of the hierarchy as well as individual and cumulative sizes.
Color can be used to represent another attribute such as file type and
provide a rich overview of the site for users and managers of the site.
Early results from user studies suggest that WebTOC is easily learned and
can assist users in navigating websites.
