Managing digital signatures

摘要

A method includes searching a data instance in a modular interactive document to identify completed digital signatures, validating the identified completed digital signatures, generating a signature information table that associates nodes of the data instance with signature information including an indicator of a digital signature status associated with each of the nodes, retrieving a page of the modular interactive document, retrieving data associated with the page and identifying nodes of data associated with user interface elements of the page, retrieving the digital signature status associated with the identified nodes of data associated with the user interface elements of the page from the signature information table, and presenting the page of the modular interactive document to the user on a display, the presented page including data corresponding to the identified nodes and an indication of the digital signature status associated with the data corresponding to the identified nodes.

1. A method for managing digital signature information regarding a modular interactive document, the method comprising:
searching all data instances in the modular interactive document to identify completed digital signatures of one or more users; creating parse trees corresponding to the data instances, each parse tree including at least one node of data; associating each node of data with signature information corresponding to that node of data based on the identified digital signatures of one or more users; generating a signature information table including a list of all the nodes of data corresponding to all the data instances and the signature information associated with the nodes of data; and based on the signature information table, presenting on a display the modular interactive document along with one or more indicators indicating one or more corresponding nodes of data have been signed.
