| 20080244394 | DISPLAY AND LAYOUT FLOW OF RELATIVELY POSITIONED USER INTERFACE ITEMS - An improved solution for managing a user interfaces is provided. Aspects of the invention include the display and layout flow of relatively positioned user interface items. In an embodiment of the invention, a method of managing a user interface is provided, the method includes: obtaining a document for a rendition, wherein the document includes a plurality of user interface items; positioning a first user interface item at a first location on the document; setting a display property value of the first user interface item to one of: on or off; and relatively positioning from the first user interface item a second user interface item at a second location, wherein the relative positioning is independent of the display property value. | 10-02-2008 |
| 20090282396 | PRESERVING A STATE OF AN APPLICATION DURING UPDATE - The present invention augments an application update with an automatic sequence of steps for instantiating the updated application in place of the currently running application, without unintended loss of the end-user generated data that comprises all or part of the current application state. The new version may consume most or all of the previously entered data to enter a state of needing a minimal amount of new information (which may be different from being in the state of ready to submit). | 11-12-2009 |
| 20090319946 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR SELECTIVE AND DYNAMIC ELABORATION OF SECURE FORM CONTENT - The present invention is directed towards systems and methods for providing interactive document content to a user. The method according to one embodiment of the present invention comprises authoring an interactive document, said interactive document comprising at least one interactive page. A plurality of pages defined within the interactive document are then parsed and stored and an initial plurality of interactive pages may be provided to the user, the initial interactive pages defined within the interactive document. The method may then attach a plurality of pages in response to requests for attachment and is operative to display various pluralities of pages to a user during interaction with the document. | 12-24-2009 |
