Embodiment Construction

[0035] see figure 1, which shows a first preferred embodiment according to the invention. It includes a server 10 connected to a client computing device 12 via a network 14 . Network 14 may include the Internet, but could equally include a private network that provides access only to authorized users. While only a single server 10 and client computing device 12 are shown, it should be understood that network 14 may interconnect multiple client computing devices with multiple servers.

[0036] The server 10 has server software 16 which controls the operation of the server, including storing and transferring over the network 14 pages stored in the memory 18 of the server 10, in a known manner. Server 10 may comprise a World Wide Web server or the like, where it provides access to pages stored on disk. Such pages are generally "static" in nature, in that they are accessible to all users and their content is the same for all users. However, in a preferred implementation of the...

Abstract

The present invention provides a real-time means of automatically updating the content of a user pre-selected set of web pages without requiring any action by the user to initiate the web page updating process. This is accomplished by incorporating software code in the user computing device browser that, in response to a real-time web content change notification message, causes the browser to reload the URL identified in the change notification message. The software code can also include Java applets embedded in the downloaded webpage, etc., and the Java applet responds to the real-time webpage content change notification message to make the browser reload the webpage whose URL is identified in the message, or reload the currently displayed webpage. webpage. A change notification message is generated by the application whose web page content has changed, and the message is relayed in real time by the message mediation agent to the push client agent that includes the software code. The present invention has many advantages, including reducing unnecessary web page reloading operations, thereby reducing network traffic.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a method and system for updating / reloading browsed page content on the network, particularly but not exclusively to a method and system for updating / reloading browsed page content on the Internet. Background technique [0002] A browser is a software program running on a client computing device, such as a personal computer (PC), that enables the client computing device to retrieve pages from a server on a network. Such pages contain data including the file content, its structure, layout and physical format as well as links to other files and media objects in the system. The browser interprets the retrieved page and displays the contents of the file on the display of the client computing device. Typically, a network includes multiple client computing devices and multiple servers on which reside a large number of pages that can be accessed by users via their client computing devices. Each page has a unique network addre...
