Abstract

In a multi-media data communication system, there are in a server a plurality of graphical user interface (GUI) structures which are different in metaphor image from each other but function to provide the same service. A service request including metaphor designating data for designating a specific one of the plurality of GUI structures and a terminal identifier of a request issuing terminal equipment of a plurality of terminal equipments is issued from the request issuing terminal equipment to the server via a bidirectional communication line. The server determines whether the request issuing terminal equipment is allowed to receive a service and whether the service request includes the metaphor designating data when it is determined that the request issuing germinal equipment is allowed to receive service. When the service request includes the metaphor designating data, the server transmits the specific one of the plurality of GUI structures to the request issuing terminal equipment. in response to the service request. The request issuing germinal equipment designates a specific service using the transmitted GUI structure transmitted from the server and the server provides the specific service designated based on the transmitted GUI structure by the request issuing terminal equipment. In this manner, the request issuing terminal equipment can receive the specific service from the server.
