Abstract: A method is provided for reformatting a web page that includes a number of hyperlinks. The page is received (814) by a browser, and before being presented is analyzed (826) to determine whether the hyperlinks meet vertical and horizontal spacing criteria. If the page is cluttered with hyperlinks (826), it is reformatted (830) and then presented (818). The reformatting may be done by introducing HTML tags (830) or using a cascading style sheet (928). Reformatting may also be done in response to a request submitted by a user (712) to the browser (708), to improve the appearance of the displayed web page.
