Claim:
A catalog page generation system, comprising: a memory; a first generation circuit that comprises a processor that generates a catalog page of objects included in a first folder; a monitor on which the catalog page of the objects included in the first folder is displayed; a first determination circuit that determines whether or not second folder different from the first folder exists, based upon the displayed catalog page; a second generation circuit that generates existence information if the first determination circuit determines that the second folder exists, based upon the displayed catalog page, the existence information indicating the existence of the second folder at the same level as the first folder, based upon the displayed catalog page; and an existence indicator being displayed as the existence information on the monitor if the second generation circuit generates the existence information, wherein the existence indicator is displayed beyond an area displaying the catalog page of the objects included in the first folder on the monitor, ordered sequence information are assigned to the first folder and the second folder, and the existence information generated when the ordered sequence information assigned to the second folder precedes the ordered sequence information assigned to the first folder, respectively, constitutes a first existence information, and the first existence information indicates that the ordered sequence information assigned to the second folder precedes the ordered sequence information assigned to the first folder.
