Abstract: Gadgets integrate with spreadsheets and the spreadsheet calculation engine. A gadget is bound to a range of cells (one or more) within a sheet. When one or more of the cells of the bound range is accessed (e.g. selected, hovered over, edited, deleted, added), the gadget is notified. The gadget may use this information for updating a display rendered by the gadget and/or performing some other action. The gadget uses an Application Programming Interface (API) to create the binding, communicate with the spreadsheet, and perform actions in the spreadsheet. The gadget is a Named Item object within the spreadsheet such that the gadget may be viewed/displayed differently from other objects. Out of date requests from the gadget are attempted to be detected and prevented from being processed such that the gadget is not acting on the latest data.

Abstract: The settings related to form fields now are unable to be set dynamically according to attributes of a table. The settings related to form fields include length of form fields, validation rule of form filed (such as length of input character or whether the input character is a not null parameter, etc.), and presentation of form fields (such as check box or calendar time selection interface). The present invention uses result set metadata of a relational database to get the attributes. Thus a form interface includes form fields corresponding to the attributes. And the presentation of the form fields can be determined by the corresponding attribute parameters. Moreover, whether data format is correct is checked by a form validation program according to data user input into the form field. Thereby development workflow can be simplified and development time can be shortened for web developers and program designers.

Abstract: A browser-executable software program for presenting a web page that provides the “look and feel” and functionality of a mobile application can be automatically generated from a mobile application specification. The mobile application specification identifies one or more predetermined content component types and one or more associated content sources. For each content component type, a copy of a corresponding code generation template is populated with a URL for each corresponding content source and executed to produce browser-executable program code. The browser-executable program code is then embedded into a populated copy of a navigation container code template to form a complete browser-executable software program, which is integrated into an HTML page. The HTML page can be returned in response to a request from a browser executing on a networked mobile wireless telecommunication computing device and the HTML page carries the browser-executable software program to the browser.
