Abstract :
Many Web based information systems plan to support database query facilities for the Web users. This will enable the users to seek the desired information from vast data resources. However, most Web users are not skilled at using the conventional database query languages. Most users are highly skilled at referring to tabular data. A natural inclination exists among the users for object-by-object traction to find information. We propose an approach for the Web information systems users. The proposed interface introduces simplicity and avoids communication ambiguities.
