Abstract: A method normalizes a page flow into a portlet. One or more processors generates a portlet based on webpages in the page flow. The webpages are linked together through a navigation control in the portlet to execute a specific business logic. The webpages in the page flow include a first webpage and a second webpage, which are linked via a Uniform Resource Locator (URL). The processor(s) build an intra-portlet action based on a linking relationship between the first and second webpages by the portlet. The intra-portlet action is based on the URL that links the first webpage to the second webpage. The URL is located in a JavaScript file for the portlet and indicates a relative path for the portlet. The processor(s) convert the URL indicating the relative path for the portlet into a URL indicating an absolute path, which includes an attached root path for the portlet.

Abstract: A method and/or an apparatus normalizes a page flow into a portlet. The method comprises: generating at least one portlet based on one or more pages in the page flow; building at least one of an intra-portlet action and an inter-portlet action for the least one portlet; and modifying a Uniform Resource Locator URL in the at least one portlet. With the method and the apparatus, the page flow developed by a developer can be automatically normalized into the portlet which is easier to be shared between difference applications and integrated with an existing portal application, so that the developer can focus on development of page flow while achieving user experience and advantages specific to the portlet.
