HTML Application

Abstract: A method and system for injecting code into an existing HTML document that enables the conditional generation and incorporation of an injectable component is provided. The injection mechanism provided enables a user to display an add-on user interface component within a web page using a technique that is transparent to the normal processing within a browser application. The injection mechanism installs interceptor code as a proxy server between a client browser and a server. The interceptor code monitors all HTTP messages sent from the client browser and injects code into each HTML document that is sent from a server to the client browser. The injected code when executed by the client browser conditionally inserts HTML code into the received HTML document. The inserted HTML code is then used by the client browser to generate a new component, for example a user interface component. The code injected by the interceptor code is dependent upon the type of the browser and whether certain tags are present in the received HTML document. In addition, the code may be written in a script language, such as Javascript or VBscript.

Abstract: Disclosed is a system for generating HTML code for various HTML interfaces such as various set-top boxes using non-technical personnel. The system employs a graphic user interface such as wizard to allow a non-technical user to enter content data to be displayed on the HTML page. The content data is translated my a XML translator into XML code. An XSL parser for a particular HTML interface is used to translate the XML code into HTML code for each particular HTML interface.

Abstract: An HTML package of the Windows foundation classes framework allows Java developers to write Java code normally as if they were writing to any user interface framework. The WFC framework converts their coding into standard HTML for display on an Internet Explorer version 4.0 web browser, a selected browser or generic HTML if so indicated by the developer. The HTML generation process is replaceable with third party generators to specifically target selected browsers with differing capabilities. During code writing key value pairs are maintained in arrays and are used to generate styles and attributes, which are further used to generate HTML. Also, several states are used when the code is being written to manage modification and display of HTML directly on a browser. The states and movement between them are transparent to the programmer because the states are handled internally by the library.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a voice browser (110) and a method at a voice browser, the voice browser (110) being arranged at a server (120) connected to the Internet (130) and responsive to Dual Tone MultiFrequency (DTMF) tones received from a telecommunications network (150). The voice browser is responsive to different sets of predetermined DTMF tones, one set dedicated for voice browser functions and another set dedicated for HTML application functions. The voice browser (110) synchronises the possible DTMF tones that can be accepted for a certain browsed part of an HTML page.
