INTERACTING WITH SOFTWARE APPLICATIONS DISPLAYED IN A WEB PAGE

摘要

The invention enables the display of application-output data within application-output windows (326) embedded in a web browser window (320). The application-output windows (326) can be dynamically moved, resized and otherwise manipulated within the web browser window (320) even when the application program providing the source of the application-output data is non-web enabled (e.g., legacy applications). The invention receives window attribute information associated with the application-output windows (326) via a first virtual channel (660) and displays application-output data received via a second channel (670) within the application-output windows (326), which are formed and/or modified using the window attribute information.
