Next, the operation of the client / server system configured as described above will be described. FIG.
3 is a flowchart for explaining the operation of the client / server system shown in FIG. Note that each process on the server computer side in FIG. 2 indicates a user information request process performed by executing the user information request processing program stored in the ROM 21 by the CPU 22, and each process on the client computer side in FIG. ,
3 illustrates a user information management process performed by the CPU 12 executing a user information management process program stored in the ROM 11.

First, in step S1, the CPU 22
Transmits the input form data as a user information transmission request via the communication unit 26. The input form data includes input screen information for displaying the input form as an input screen and identification information for identifying each user information.

For example, if the server computer 2 needs the user's name, gender, date of birth, credit card number and address as user information, the input form shown in FIG. 3 is displayed as input form data. Data is transmitted.

In the example shown in FIG. 3, HTML (HyperText
When defining an input box for inputting a user's last name using a markup language (<input type = te>)
By describing xtname = user_family_name>, it is possible to display the input box of the last name of the user's name shown in FIG. In this case, user
_Family_name is identification information for identifying the user's last name, which is user information.

Other user information is described in the same manner as described above.
In the example shown in FIG. 3, for example, "user_personal_nam"
e ", gender specific information" user_sex ", and date of birth" user_bitthda "
y ”and“ use ”as the specific information of the credit card number.
“r_credit_card” and “user_address” as address specifying information. The specific information is not particularly limited to the above example, and other descriptions may be used as long as the user information can be individually specified according to the content.

Next, in step S2, the CPU 12
Receives input form data via the communication unit 16.

Next, in step S3, the CPU 12
Extracts the specific information from the received input form data in order to specify the user information requested by the server computer 2, and stores the user information stored corresponding to the extracted specific information in the external storage device 14. Read from

Here, an example of the specific information and the user information stored in the external storage device 14 will be described. FIG. 4 is a diagram showing an example of the data structure of the specific information and the user information stored in the external storage device 14 shown in FIG. Note that the specific information and the user information shown in FIG. 4 are, for example, data in which the user previously inputs each user information using an input form as shown in FIG.

As shown in FIG. 4, the external storage device 14
User information is stored for each piece of user information together with identification information for identifying the user information. For example, user information “Yamada” representing a last name is stored in association with the specific information “user_family_name”, and user information “Taro” representing a first name is stored in association with the specific information “user_personal_name”. It is remembered.

In the above user information, there may be a plurality of types in one category. For example, when a user has a plurality of credit cards, “user_credi” is specified as credit card number specific information.
If only “t_card” is used, a plurality of credit card numbers cannot be specified. In such a case, priority information for specifying the priority may be added to the specific information, and a plurality of types of user information in one category may be specified.

For example, when the user owns a credit card of AAA, BBB and CCC, "user_credi" is used as the specific information of the credit card number so that the last digit of the specific information indicates the priority.
t_card. 1 "," user_credit_ca
rd. 2 "and" user_credit_card.
3), the company name and credit card number of each credit card of AAA, BBB and CCC "AAA 1234567890",
“BBB 34567890112” and “CCC 67
“89012345” is stored in association with the above three specific information.

In this case, when the credit card number is requested from the server computer 2, the user information "AAA 1234567890" corresponding to the specific information "user_credit_card.1" having the highest priority is given.
Is displayed preferentially, or user information corresponding to all the specific information is displayed in a menu format and is selected by the user, whereby the user information to be transmitted can be specified.

The priority may be set by the user at the time of registering the user information as described above, or the priority of the frequently used user information may be automatically set higher. Is also good.

The user information may be the same or different depending on the language used by the user.
When the user's last name is described in a different language such as Japanese or English, "user_fami" is used as specific information of the user's last name.
If only “ly_name” is used, it is not possible to specify a plurality of surnames in different languages used for notation. In such a case, language specifying information for specifying the language in which the user information is written may be added to the specific information, and a plurality of pieces of user information having the same content but different language notations may be specified.

For example, if the user has the user's surname as "Yamada" in Japanese and "ya" in English (Roman)
In the case of using “mada”, as the specific information for specifying the user's last name, “user_family_name.
j "(Language identification information in which the last character" j "represents Japanese)
And “user_family_name.e” (language specifying information in which the last character “e” represents English) is prepared, and “user_family_name.e” is prepared.
j, “Yamada” is stored, and “user_f” is stored.
amilly_name. e "in response to" yamad
a ”is stored.

In this case, the user information corresponding to the language used by the server computer 2 can be specified, and the user information corresponding to the specified language can be read.
User information written in a language requested by the server computer 2 can be automatically transmitted to the server computer 2.

When the user information is requested by the input form shown in FIG. 3 in a state where the specific information and the user information shown in FIG.
2 is the specific information “user_family_nam”
e "," user_personal_name ",
"User_sex", "user_bitthda
y "," user_credit_card "and" u
User information “Yamada”, “Taro”, “male”, “19801” stored corresponding to “ser_address”
231 ”,“ AAA 1234567890 ”and“ XX prefecture XX city 1-2-3 ”are sequentially read from the external storage device 14.

Next, in step S4, the CPU 12
Displays the input form on the display unit 17 using the input form data received in step S2, and inserts and displays the user information read in step S3 in a corresponding input frame of the input form.

For example, when the user information shown in FIG. 4 is displayed on the input form shown in FIG. 3, an input form in which the user information corresponding to each input frame is inserted is displayed on the display unit 17 as shown in FIG. Is done. As described above, the list of the user information transmitted to the server computer 2 is displayed, so that the user can easily determine whether to permit the transmission of the user information.

Next, in step S5, the CPU 12
Determines whether new user information has been input in the input frame of the displayed input form, and if new user information has been input, the process proceeds to step S6, and no new user information has been input. In this case, the process proceeds to step S7.

For example, if the user information displayed in the input box of the displayed input form is incorrect, or the user information to be inserted into the input frame of the displayed input form is stored in the external storage device 14. If the user information is not displayed, the user needs to input new user information in the input box.

In the above case, when the user inputs new user information into the input box using the input unit 15, the CPU 12
Determines that new user information has been input, proceeds to step S6, and stores the newly input user information in the external storage device 14 together with identification information for identifying the user information.

Therefore, even when the user information is changed or new user information is added, the new user information is stored in the external storage device 14 using the input form in the same manner as the already stored user information. After that, there is no need to input user information again.

If there is no input of new user information or if the updating of the user information has been completed, in step S7, the CPU 12 determines whether or not the user has permitted the transmission of the user information. If the transmission is permitted, the process proceeds to step S8. If the user does not permit the transmission of the user information, the process proceeds to step S9 to end the process.

For example, when the user uses the input unit 15 in FIG.
Is clicked on the input form shown in FIG. 5, the CPU 12 determines that the user has permitted the transmission of the user information, and the user uses the input unit 15 to cancel the input form shown in FIG. When the button is clicked, the CPU 12 determines that the user has refused transmission of the user information.

When the user permits the transmission of the user information, the CPU 12 transmits all the user information displayed on the input form to the server computer 2 via the communication unit 16 in step S8.

For example, when the user permits transmission of the input form shown in FIG. 5, the user information includes “Yamada”, “Taro”, “male”, and “1980 12 3”.
1 "," AAA 1234567890 "and" XX prefecture XX city 1-2-3 "are transmitted to the server computer 2.

Next, in step S10, the CPU 2
2 receives the user information via the communication unit 26. In the above example, the CPU 22 determines “Yamada”, “Taro”, “male”, “1980 12 3” as user information.
1, "AAA 1234567890" and "XX prefecture XX city 1-2-3" are received.

Next, in step S11, the CPU 2
2 executes a predetermined application using the received user information and provides a predetermined service to the user. For example, in the case of electronic commerce, a product can be sent to a user using the above user information.

As described above, in this embodiment, the user information is centrally managed in the client computer 1 in a state where it can be specified by the specific information. The transmission of the user information can be requested by specifying the user information. On the other hand, the user only needs to store his / her user information once in the external storage device 14 of the client computer 1 and thereafter need the server computer 2 in response to a request from the server computer 2 without inputting user information again. The user information can be automatically transmitted from the client computer 1 to the server computer 2.

Further, the user information is transmitted from the client computer 1 to the server computer 2 only when the user confirms the user information listed on the display unit 17 and permits the transmission of the user information. Security for information can be ensured.

As a result, user information required by the server computer 2 can be automatically transmitted from the client computer 1 to the server computer 2 in response to a request from the server computer 2 while ensuring security for the user information.

When a proxy server is provided on the client computer side, the user information management processing program may be executed by the proxy server. In this case, the same effect as described above can be obtained.

Further, when storing and transmitting the user information, the user information may be stored and transmitted using a known encryption technique. In this case, the security of the user information can be further improved.

[0084]

According to the present invention, only when the user permits transmission of the user information, the user information managed in a state that can be specified by the specific information on the client computer side in response to the request of the server computer. Since the transmission is performed, the user information required by the server computer can be automatically transmitted in response to a request from the server computer while ensuring security for the user information.
