Abstract :
The paper proposes a visualization tool for the structure of World-Wide Web documents using fisheye-view techniques. Besides helping user navigation, this graphical browser may play an important role in Web information searching. In order to build structural views more efficiently, a set of rules for Web-site authoring, based on nested composition concepts, are proposed to help logically organizing documents
