PATH-ANALYSIS TOOLBAR

A toolbar is provided that is synchronized with a web-site browser system. The toolbar provides an interface to a path analysis system that provides path analysis data related to a select web-page. By synchronizing the toolbar to the browser, the path analysis system provides path analysis data related to the web-page that the browser is currently displaying. By displaying the path analysis data coincident with the content of the web-page from the browser, the user is provided a direct visual association between the actual web-page and the traversals to and from the web-page. By synchronizing the toolbar with the browser, the user can view the path analysis data of each page as the user navigates through the web-site using the same technology that a typical web-site visitor would use. The toolbar in a preferred embodiment is also configured to be synchronized to the movements of a cursor within the browser, and to highlight the path analysis data associated with each link as the cursor is brought in proximity to the link on the displayed web-page.
