The method, program and system secures sensitive data/objects found in a data source document with an editor. The simple editor identifies and displays, in situ, the sensitive words/objects per each security level. Level tags are inserted and adjunctive words/objects are marked/displayed per the level's protocol. The precursor document is processed to extract sensitive and adjunctive words/objects. The stripped data is either separately stored or partial versions of the secured document are stored per protocol. A comprehensive editor secures content data and meta data contained in a data document object model (DOM). The editor maps the source document root, branch and leaf components as binary files populated with content data and meta data. Security introns, earlier identified based upon the level's informational attributes, are excluded. Security exons are copied from the source content and meta data binary files into a security safe document (template). Filtration, extraction, dispersal and storage follow.

In a collaborative computing environment, a method and system for displaying revisions associated with a hosted electronic document are disclosed. In accordance with the disclosed method and system, select revisions of an electronic document may be displayed to a user, recreating a visual history play-back of the evolution of the electronic document. The electronic document may be displayed in a web-browsing application, utilizing a Document Object Model (“DOM”) retrieving the select revisions via Asynchronous JavaScript and XML (“AJAX”) calls to a remote device/server.

A system for manipulating a document object model is provided. The system comprises a collection of document object model behavior elements, and a collection of scripts for performing actions associated with the set of behavior elements. Each behavior element comprises a name following a predetermined naming convention, an event attribute for associating the behavior element to an event, and other attributes for describing features of the behavior element. Each script is associated with a behavior element.

A method for serving a web page uses eXtensible Markup Language (XML) server pages. The first time a page is accessed, a given flat file is parsed into an XML Document Object Model (DOM), and required tag libraries are loaded. The DOM tree is then traversed, preferably in a depth-first, inside-out manner to locate custom tags. Upon locating a custom tag, if the tag is registered as a Java object, the object is loaded. A process method is then called on the object, passing the custom tag's tree node. The Java object then examines the custom tag and replaces it with an object, e.g., script code. Alternatively, if the tag is registered as an XSL stylesheet, the stylesheet is loaded and passed, together with the DOM, to an XSL processor. The processor applies the template to the custom tag and replaces it with given script code. Once all custom tags are reduced to HTML and script code, the DOM is compiled into a Java servlet to service the client request.

A Web browser is used as the rendering engine for the client application. The browser is instructed to load a "page" (some set of instructions that eventually resolves to a sequence of HTML (HyperText Markup Language) tags which instruct the browser regarding the number/nature and layout of the controls desired) which the browser parses to produce a set of controls with the indicated containment hierarchy. These controls may contain definitions of data stores (such as the support for an XML (eXtended Markup Language) tag which produces a W3C compliant DOM (Docunent Object Model) with built-in parsing for XML documents) which may either locally define their data or cause the browser to request the data from a server on the network. Preferably, the browser then passes control to a data binding agent which will examine the controls for specification of desired data binding(s).

A system and a method are disclosed for bi-directionally sharing DOMS in order to enable a shared internet browsing experience between first and second client computing devices. The client computing devices share the DOMs of the webpages each is currently viewing via a central server. In this manner, the webpage being viewed at the first client computing device is rendered at the second client computing device and the webpage being viewed at the second client computing device is rendered at the first client computing device.

Different scripting languages may reside side-by-side or nested within each other on the same web page. Thus, a new author may add code to the page, and he or she is not tied to any given subset of languages supported by the web server. Multiple scripting languages are supported by identifying a start and an end of each scripting language code block authored into the web page markup language. When the web page is later compiled into an XML Document Object Model (DOM) tree, the routine examines the DOM to identify any nodes that identify a given code block. Upon encountering a node that identifies a given code block, the DOM is adjusted to account for the script code within the given code block.

The Document Object Model (DOM) of a sampled web page is used to create a rule that extracts item-related data from web pages having a similar DOM structure to the sampled web page. In response to a user request for such a web page, the rule is retrieved from a data server based on the page's URL, and is applied to the DOM of the web page to extract item-identifying data. The item is then identified-preferably by the data server-by matching the item-identifying data to an item in a database. Supplemental information about the item is then retrieved from the database and supplied to the user's computer for viewing in conjunction with the requested page. In a preferred embodiment, the rule is retrieved from the data server and applied to the web page by a client application that runs in conjunction with a web browser.

This invention provides a computer-method for parsing by enabling scripts to be expressed in a language which is syntax-compatible with the document surrounding them. A document is loaded having script and non-script components. Script components are identified and delineated, and are then passed to an interpreter, which returns an object corresponding to each script component. Then, script elements in the original document are replaced with the last returned object from the interpreter. If the returned object is a suitable Document Object Model (DOM) Node, it replaces the script element in the document structure. If the object is not a DOM node, the server invokes its string conversion method to obtain a textual representation, and replaces the script element with that text. After all BML markup block elements in the document have been processed, the altered document is delivered to the client.

A system for developing and deploying web pages that have dynamic content is disclosed. First, a graphic artist creates a template HTML file that will provide the visual appearance of a dynamic web page. The template HTML file is embedded with identifier tags that identify locations where dynamic content should be inserted. A programmer then creates a program for manipulating a Document Object Model (DOM) representation of the HTML file to add desired dynamic content. The template HTML file and dynamic content program are then deployed to a special server system that serves the template HTML by executing the associated dynamic content program. When the server system receives a request for the template HTML file, the server first creates a clone of a Document Object Model (DOM) of the template HTML file and executes the dynamic content program to manipulated the DOM representation. The server then transforms the manipulated DOM representation into HTML and delivers the generated HTML to the client system that made the request.

Methods and devices for accelerating webpage rendering by a browser store document object model (DOM) tree structures and computations of rendered pages, and compare portions of a DOM tree of pages being render to determining if portions of the DOM tree structures match. If a DOM tree of a webpage to be rendered matches a DOM tree stored in memory, the computations associated with the match DOM tree may be recalled from memory, obviating the need to perform the calculations to render the page. A tree isomorphism algorithm may be used to recognize DOM trees stored in memory that match the DOM tree of the webpage to be rendered. Reusing rendering computations may significantly reducing the time and resources required for rendering web pages. Identifying reusable portions of calculation results based on DOM tree isomorphism enables the browser to reuse stored webpage rendering calculations even when URLs do not match.

A technique for easily making modifications to a graphical user interface (GUI). XML files each containing different rules for making a tree display are easily written by code developers. The files are merged into a document object model (DOM) stored in memory. The GUI display presentation can thus be easily updated by the code developers by modifying the rules stored in the DOM by merging additional XML files containing rule additions, deletions and/or modifications into the DOM. The DOM is parsed for certain object classes for which object instances are needed. The object instances having certain display properties are retrieved from the system or network with which the GUI is operative and are combined with certain display attributes or display rules stored in the DOM. The object instances including their display properties and attributes are returned to the GUI to be displayed on the terminal screen in accordance therewith.

The invention generally relates to the field of markup languages used to describe adaptive mobile multimedia applications and/or presentations being inherently dependent on the dynamic mobile environment they are running in, which means that these mobile multimedia applications and/or presentations need to be adapted to the preferences of mobile users, the capabilities of their mobile computing devices, and their current situation. It allows adaptive mobile stream-based multimedia applications with real-time requirements in a typical wireless scenario (e.g. a radio link with a changing transmission quality and hand-over procedures) to adaptively and responsively react to a time-varying network topology and different radio link characteristics. Thereby, the underlying invention especially includes research and development issues in the field of describing adaptation possibilities (1500), adaptation constraints (802) and adaptation events (3802) directed to a personalization and context-aware adaptation of document-based multimedia applications by providing methods for pre-allocating, reserving, monitoring and adapting QoS-related parameters in a dynamic mobile environment using an XML-based multimedia presentation language.

In this connection, a document model (100) consisting of vocabulary, document structure and linking means (1600) between the document model elements is presented which supports the description (700) of adaptive mobile multimedia applications and/or presentations. Besides, a document object model supporting a simplified transaction-oriented access is proposed.

Various embodiments presented herein relate to scanning for and detecting web page vulnerabilities, including cross-site scripting (XSS). Some embodiments are configured to scan for and detect vulnerabilities of a target web page using a client-based approach, which may employ a remotely-controlled web browser application capable of generating a document object model (DOM) for the target web page as it is accessed. Some embodiments may scan for and detect web page vulnerabilities by monitoring the DOM associated with a targeted web page as one or more attack vectors are applied to the target web page. Certain embodiments are capable of detecting web page vulnerabilities independent of the complexity or presence of an event model, or obfuscation of the malicious code (e.g., XSS code). Target web pages that are scanned may include those associated with an application coded in a web browser-supported language, such a Rich Internet Application (RIA).

A web crawler system has an automatic website crawler and a virtual browser that provides script related information to the website crawler. The virtual browser transforms an HTML document included in a web page of the website into an XML document, and builds a document object model containing document objects in a tree structure based on the XML document. The virtual browser extracts from the DOM scripts that are potentially executable, and executes the extracted scripts using a browser object model provided for the virtual browser containing objects and methods and properties that are used for script execution so as to capture script related information generated by execution of the scripts.

One aspect of the present invention includes capturing a client browser state and communicating this captured browser state within markup text for logging at a web server. In one embodiment, the contents of the DOM (Document Object Model) of a webpage accessed by a client are traversed and written as markup text in a string of characters, such as HTML. This markup, in addition to metadata specific to identify the browser display environment, is transmitted from the client to the server as text within a HTTP request. The server may then log the markup text and the metadata for later access. The logged markup text and the metadata can be used to recreate the exact display which occurred within the client browser, and therefore provide details useful for webpage problem determination, testing, and development.

The present invention describes and claims a new system and technique or method for decoupling the interpretation of broadcast content information from the display of this information. The information may exist in any of the available types, such as audio, video, or data. In addition, the information may be received in any form, such as streaming or non-streaming, combinations of the two, or even parts thereof. The decoupling and encapsulating of the broadcast content information is accomplished using a content proxy. All content information in the content proxy is accessed via an Application Program Interface. The content proxy employs a hierarchical Document Object Model (DOM) that contains Program and System Information Protocol (“PSIP”) data, that has been converted to an eXtendible Markup Language format using a conversion algorithm, broadcast content data, as well as content data or information about all of the hardware, software, and appliances connected within the networked environment. The proxy concept is applicable to the design and implementation of a Digital TV broadcast rendering device within a Digital TV Application Software Environment framework.

A technique is provided for generating one or more XML documents from a relational database using the XPath data model. Data stored on a data storage device that is connected to a computer is transformed. Initially, a document object model tee is generated using a document access definition, which defines the mapping between an XML tree structure and relational tables. The document object model tree is traversed to obtain information to retrieve relational data. The relational data is mapped to one or more XML documents.

A cooperative rendering cache browser (CRC-Browser) for a mobile device may cooperatively manage cached content with a proxy server to reduce redundant transmissions of processed Web data. Additionally, the CRC-Browser may provide stateful, thin-client Web browsing to maintain synchronized information about rendering objects of a Web page. Further, the CRC-Browser may cache only stable and/or visible document object model (DOM) elements and communicate a list of IDs of the cached elements to the proxy. Such stateful thin-client browsers may be useful for reducing battery drain, poor responsiveness, and high wireless network costs of mobile Web browsing.
