METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR STATIC AND DYNAMIC GENERATION OF INFORMATION ON A USER INTERFACE

摘要

Methods and systems of the present invention (100) enable a user to request a web page with static information and dynamic information by invoking a presentation object located on a server (101). The presentation object is created by compiling object-oriented code (121) together with structured text (116), such as text formatted using HTML. The structured text can be used to display static information on the web page. People can modify the structured text portion of the presentation object (124) without modifying the object-oriented programming language. More sophisticated software developers can use the object-oriented programming language to generate information to be used in the web page. By combining object-oriented code and structured text, users can develop complex web pages for use in enterprise networks.
