Client-side script to application communication system

摘要

A method of activating external application logic from a script embedded in client-side rendered markup. The method can include establishing a communicative link with an application interface to the script. A pre-configured message can be received from the application interface over the communicative link. In response to receiving the pre-configured message, at least one operation can be activated in a process address space which is separate from a process address space used to render the markup and to process the script. Importantly, in a preferred aspect of the present invention, data can be retrieved from a data source remote to the client computing device. Subsequently, the retrieved data can be used to populate at least one user interface field in separately rendered markup.
