International Classification:

H04L 9/00

US Classification:

713168

Abstract:

Preventing unauthorized data posts to a server hosting an information site, such as a site on the Web. A HASH value can be generated at a server computer hosting the information site using a message digest algorithm and appended, along with an additional data item present in the message used to generate the HASH value, to a data form in response to a request for the data form. In response to receiving a post containing data corresponding to data required by the data form, the server computer can determine if a HASH value and data item has been attached to the data post and if the HASH value is the same value as the HASH value sent with the form file. If data are posted without a correct HASH value, the data can be rejected by the server computer, preventing unauthorized posts of data to the information site.

US Classification:

715838, 715810, 715842

Abstract:

A sidebar UI of an application program provides access to the application program's functionality while occupying a reduced amount of real estate on the screen when compared to conventional UIs. The sidebar UI comprises an icon or multiple icons, and each icon references a pane that provides its user the ability to access and utilize a function and/or feature of the application program. Selecting an icon in the sidebar UI causes the referenced pane which provides access to, for example, a feature of the application program to be displayed on the screen. “Clicking off” the pane causes the pane to close.

Abstract:

A method and system for tracking and editing a resource in a real-time collaborative session is provided. A collaboration system provides real-time collaborative sessions between participants. When a participant in a collaboration session uploads a non-editable copy of a resource for viewing in the collaborative session, the collaboration system records the participant who uploaded the non-editable copy of the resource as the owner of an original copy of the resource and the location of the resource on that participant's machine. When the same or another participant attempts to edit the non-editable copy of the resource during the collaborative session, the collaboration system locates the original copy of the resource and starts the sharing of the resource in an editable form in the collaborative session.

Assignee:

International Classification:

G06F 15/16

US Classification:

709204

Abstract:

A technique for providing one class of users of an application a view of what a typical user in another class of users of the same application is visually experiencing. A client application that is interacting with the application provides a user an option of having a PIP view of what a typical user in one of the other classes of users supported by the application is visually experiencing. When the user requests to display a PIP view that represents what a typical user in a specified one of the other classes of users of the same application is seeing, a PIP view window is automatically rendered on the user's display screen. The PIP view window represents what a typical user in the specified one of the other classes of users is seeing, but is not an “active” interface through which the user can interact with the application.

US Classification:

715753000

Abstract:

A screen sharing indication system provides a presenter of a collaboration session an indication of what content being displayed on the presenter's computer screen is being shared with attendees during the collaboration session. Any part of the presenter's desktop or computer screen that are not being shared with the attendees is visually distinguished from the areas that are being shared. For example, the areas of the presenter's desktop that are not being shared and thus, are not visible by the attendees appear dimmed or grayed-out, cross-hatched, color shaded, etc., while the areas of the presenter's desktop that are being shared appear normal.

Assignee:

MICROSOFT CORPORATION - Redmond WA

International Classification:

G06F 3/048
G06F 15/16

US Classification:

715738

Abstract:

On a client computer a request is sent to a server computer to open a first portion of a document. The document is stored at the server computer. The first portion of the document is smaller than the entire document. The request includes information used by the server computer to determine a size of the first portion of the document. The first portion of the document is received from the server computer. A second portion of the document is rendered on a display screen on the client computer. The second portion of the document is a subset of the first portion of the document. When the client computer determines that the user has scrolled a third portion of the document and that more of the document is available at the server computer, a second request is sent to the server computer to open an additional portion of the document.
