Abstract
Abstract A system is described for generating an agent script. The system determines a web page being viewed by an information requester when a request for information was initiated. An agent script is generated on the web page being viewed by the information requester when the request for information was initiated. Additionally, the agent script may be generated based on an identity associated with the information requester, a history of web pages viewed by the information requester, or the identity of an agent handling the request for information. The system is also capable of displaying multiple information identifiers, based on various factors, such as the identity of the information requester, the web page viewed by the information requester, or the history of web pages viewed by the information requester.
