Abstract: Computer apparatus for generating a graphical user interface on a display screen. The graphical user interface has a first command interface area for inputting and displaying cryptic commands for the definition of a search request, and a form-based second command interface area having fields for displaying parameters of the search request. The computer apparatus further includes an area for coupling the first and the second command interface areas such that the input of cryptic commands with the first command interface area generates a pseudo-simultaneous display of parameters reflecting at least some of the cryptic commands. The coupling means may include means for parsing the cryptic commands, program instructions for extracting structured data from the cryptic commands, means for storing the structured data within JavaScript objects, and program instructions for filling fields of the second command interface area by mapping the structured data.

Abstract: A computer apparatus includes i) a graphical user interface with a first command interface area for inputting and displaying cryptic commands for the definition of a search request and a form-based second command interface area having fields for displaying parameters of the search request, and ii) a coupling part for coupling the first and the second command interface areas such that the input of cryptic commands generates a pseudo-simultaneous display of parameters reflecting at least some of the cryptic commands, the elements for coupling including elements for parsing the cryptic commands, program instructions for extracting structured data from the cryptic commands, elements for storing the structured data within JavaScript objects, and program instructions for filling fields of the second command interface area by mapping the structured data.

Abstract: Method of searching for travel products related to trip components of a trip includes building a search request by inputting search criteria for a plurality of trip components in a single search window of a user interface of a user device; sending the search request to an application server for initiating a search process; wherein the search process includes, at the application server, splitting the search request to build sub-requests each related to one single trip component of the trip and sending in parallel each of the sub-requests to at least one provider of travel products related to the trip component of the sub-request.
