Solution Overview

Problem

Manually checking the accuracy of dynamically generated web pages in workflow software is impractical due to large data sets and numerous pages, necessitating an automated spell-checking solution.

Innovation Solution

A method and system for automatically spell-checking dynamically generated web pages, where a server generates and transmits the pages, intercepts them for text identification, executes a spelling check, and outputs potentially misspelled words, enabling efficient error detection.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If manual spell-checking is performed on dynamically generated web pages, then spelling accuracy can be verified, but the time and resources required become prohibitive due to large data sets and numerous pages

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvespelling accuracyVSAvoidtime required for manual checking
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The system enables automated self-service spell-checking where the workflow software automatically generates web pages, intercepts them, performs spelling verification using dictionary lookups, and outputs correction suggestions without requiring manual human intervention for each page

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

Solution Approach 2:

The spell-checking process is performed automatically during the web page generation phase, before the pages are fully transmitted to clients, allowing errors to be detected and corrected in advance

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

2Productivity

If automated spell-checking is implemented for dynamically generated web pages, then checking efficiency is improved, but system complexity increases due to additional interception and processing steps

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvespell-checking efficiencyVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

An intermediary spell-checking component is introduced that sits between the web page generation process and the client transmission, automatically intercepting pages for spelling verification and allowing seamless integration into the existing workflow without requiring major system restructuring

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

AI summary

Systems and methods for automatically spell-checking dynamically generated web pages include: generating, by a server responsive to a request from a client, a dynamically generated web page containing at least some text; transmitting, by the server to the client, the dynamic web page; intercepting, by a process, the dynamic web page; identifying, by the process, the at least some text; executing, by the process, a spelling check on the at least some text; and outputting, by the process, at least one word identified by the spelling check as potentially misspelled.
