US Classification:

715513, 7155011, 715536, 704 4, 709217

Abstract:

A user interface construction method () for a web based user interface (“WUI”). A server has an HTML template , HTML ResourceBundles , and JAR files containing Java ResourceBundles. At run-time, a user will select a language at the browser and a language code will be transmitted to the server , whereupon the server will construct a constructed HTML code from the HTML template and a corresponding HTML ResourceBundle. The constructed HTML code (including Java code inserts) will then be transmitted to the browser along with the JAR file containing the Java ResourceBundles.

US Classification:

719313, 719320

Abstract:

A method for passing parameters of data structures where an API and corresponding stored procedures are at different version/release levels is provided. A received data structure is parsed for a version identifier of a caller. The parsed version identifier is compared to a stored procedure version identifier and a determination is made with regards to a data structure compatibility or a data structure incompatibility. If a data structure compatibility is determined, all received data structure elements are parsed. If, however, a data structure incompatibility is determined, only data structure elements known to both the caller and the stored procedures are parsed.

International Classification:

G06F007/00

US Classification:

707/102000

Abstract:

A method, system, and program product for managing the creation, retrieval, editing or distribution of content by creating a folder and filing the folder in a library on a selected server. This is accomplished by first creating an autofoldering configuration entry in an Auto Link table. Accomplishment of this step results in returning target item types and an auto folder structure. This auto folder structure contains target and source item type IDs. The next step is fetching a next set of target item type attribute IDs, and looping through item types from the auto folder structure, searching for a target folder for each target item type from the auto folder structure. A link is invoked to a folder for each target item found; and a target folder is created if no target folders are found.

International Classification:

G06F007/00

US Classification:

707100000

Abstract:

One feature of the present invention provides a content management system that can handle a wide variety requests by using different types of items with differing attributes. The content management maintains a set of tables to manage the items. A first table is used to index or catalog each of the items and its type. A second table is used to store the attributes of each type of item. The attributes specify information about the item's type and may also include a partial SQL statement. When needed, the content management system may then use these tables to determine an item's type, retrieve the attributes for that type, obtain a partial SQL statement from the attributes, and dynamically build a SQL statement to process a wide variety of requests or commands.

US Classification:

709202

Abstract:

A method and system for accessing log messages in a distributed network is disclosed. In a first aspect, the method and system comprise selecting a plurality of application log messages from a manager within the network and displaying the plurality of log messages via a browser user interface in the first window. In a second aspect, the method and system further includes selecting a particular log message from the plurality of log messages and displaying help-text related to the selected particular log message via the browser user interface. In summary, a method and system for providing easy access to Help text regarding application log messages in a browser user interface displays application log messages on a Java applet panel within the browser. When the user double-clicks on a message, a new Web browser window is displayed which includes an HTML page with the message text, a detailed explanation of the message, and the recommend user response. While browsing the log messages the user might need further information about the message.
