Zusammenfassung:	Force feedback is provided to a user of a client computer (14, 16) receiving information such as a web page over a network (12) such as the World Wide Web from a server machine (18). The client machine (14, 16) has a force feedback interface device (24, 26) through which the user experiences physical force feedback. The web page may include force feedback information to provide authored force effects. Force feedback is correlated to web page objects by a force feedback program running on the client and based on input information from the interface device (24, 26), the web page objects, and the force feedback information. Generic force effects can also be provided, which are applied uniformly at the client machine (14, 16) to all web page objects of a particular type as defined by user preferences at the client machine (14, 16). A web page authoring interface is also described that includes the ability to add force sensations to a web page.
