Zusammenfassung:A system comprises at least one processing unit for processing a document retrieved via a communications network. The processing unit at least executes a Voice Browser application configured to audibly present voice content from the document and to identify a reference in the document that specifies visual content for visual presentation; and a Visual Browser application configured to visually present the visual content. The Voice Browser application and the Visual Browser application are separate applications. The Voice Browser application is configured to provide the identified reference to the Visual Browser application, and the Visual Browser application is configured to retrieve the visual content specified by the identified reference for visual presentation. Alternatively, the Visual Browser application is configured to identify a reference in the document that specifies voice content for audible presentation, and to provide the identified reference to the Voice Browser application, with the Voice Browser application configured to retrieve the voice content specified by the identified reference for audible presentation.
