1. A server communicatively coupled to an Internet Protocol “IP” network and configured to transfer markup language based content that represents a web page to a client computer within the network, the server comprising: a dispatcher module that: interfaces to a content source and receives a markup language content from the content source, wherein the received markup language content is targeted toward a browser application at a requesting client computer and includes one or more browser links; provides at least a portion of the received markup language content to a markup language object module; receives modified markup language content from the markup language object module; and sends the modified markup language content toward the browser application at the requesting client computer; and the markup language object module that: receives the provided markup language content from the dispatcher module; parses the provided markup language content; identifies a browser link within the provided markup language content; traverses the browser link to obtain the corresponding object; replaces the browser link in the provided markup language content with the corresponding object to modify the provided markup language content; and provides the modified markup language content to the dispatcher module; wherein the server operates in an intermediate node communicatively positioned between the content source and the requesting client; wherein the modified markup language content that is sent toward the browser application has a reduced number of browser links than the markup language content received from the content server; and wherein the modification is transparent to the browser application at the client computer.
