Abstract: A template document is received. A user defines an anchor area, and a field zone that contains a target object, in the template document. Objects, such as text objects, are identified in the anchor area along with their locations. Distances between locations of the objects in the anchor area are identified. A distance between the anchor area and the field zone is identified. A reference document is received. The objects in the reference document are identified. A number of common objects are identified. If there are common objects, locations of the common objects and the distances between the common objects are identified in the reference document. The identified distances between objects in the template document and the reference document are compared. If the distances are substantially the same, a corresponding target object is retrieved from the reference document based on the distance between the anchor area and the field zone.

Abstract: The functionality of a browser application is enhanced using a browser plug-in, which enables the browser application to access portions of a file system not otherwise accessible to the browser application. The enhanced functionality provided by the browser plug-in is used in one example by an image uploading web application. The browser application may also start a task in the background, such as a task for uploading several images, and then monitor the progress of the task even when the browser application navigates away from the page that initiated the task. The browser application may use a local web server running on the client device to perform tasks, including the rendering of images and monitoring progress of long running tasks.

Abstract: One embodiment involves receiving, by a web page authoring tool, presentation information in a markup language corresponding to a static graphical object. In this embodiment, the web page authoring tool receives animation information in a data interchange format corresponding to an adjustment for the static graphical object. In this embodiment, the web page authoring tool receives a runtime engine. In this embodiment, the web page authoring tool stores the presentation information, the animation information, and the runtime engine within a web page. The runtime engine may be configured to cause a web browser displaying the web page to render an animation. The animation can be based at least in part on the presentation information and the animation information.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for forwarding a web address to another web address is presented.

The web forwarder then determines a forwarding uniform resource locator (URL) that corresponds to the domain name and redirects the request to a second web address that corresponds to the forwarding URL.

Abstract: A wrap descriptor, which defines a wrap package of cards, including (i) a plurality of card descriptors, each defining card-specific components that define content, structure and a layout for an associated card and (ii) a global component descriptor for specifying a global component associated with two or more cards of the wrap package. Unlike card descriptors that define only card-specific components, global descriptors define components that can be applied to all the cards, or a designated subset of the cards, of a wrap package.

Abstract: Described herein are mechanisms for automatically generating a computer-executable program that transforms a first table in a first format to a second table in a second format by way of user-provided examples. A user provides an exemplary input table of a first format, where the input table may be a portion of the first table. The user also provides an exemplary output table of a second format, wherein contents of the output table correspond to contents of the input table. Based upon these user-provided examples, a table transform program is automatically generated, wherein the table transform program, when executed over the first table generates the second table.

Abstract: Disclosed are various embodiments for a text module that receives, in at least one computing device, an encoded text block, the encoded text block comprising user generated text. A set of signals is identified in the encoded text block, each signal specifying a respective text unit, each text unit corresponding to a respective series of characters in the user generated text. The text module may render the user generated text and each series of characters in the user generated text. A text selection of a subset of one of the series of characters is initially prevented. The text module receives a selection of the text unit corresponding to the one of the series of characters, the selection of the text unit triggering a text selection of one of the series of characters.

Abstract: An illustrative embodiment includes processing parse tree data. A parse tree data structure that is representative of a document object model (DOM) tree data structure is received. The parse tree data structure is projected onto a data structure that includes a binary tree. The projecting includes storing a projection that includes an association between each DOM node and a respective associated binary tree node, thereby creating a map between the parse tree data structure and the binary tree data structure. Requests to manipulate the parse tree and binary tree data structures that include node inserts and document order comparisons are also performed.

Abstract: Various methods are provided for generating and annotating a graph. One example method may include determining one or more key patterns in a primary data channel, wherein the primary data channel is derived from raw input data in response to a constraint being satisfied. A method may further include determining one or more significant patterns in one or more related data channels. A method may further include generating a natural language annotation for at least one of the one or more key patterns or the one or more significant patterns. A method may further include generating a graph that is configured to be displayed in a user interface, the graph having at least a portion of the one or more key patterns, the one or more significant patterns and the natural language annotation.

Abstract: The present disclosure describes a method and system for processing forms filled by a user. The system includes a scanner configured to scan a first form in a first language that includes one or more fillable fields filled with content; a content extractor configured to extract content from the scanned filled fields; a content processor configured to process the extracted content; and an embedding module configured to embed the processed content into a second form including one or more fields corresponding to the fillable fields of the first form.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method, carried out by one or more processors, for managing product configuration files. In an embodiment, the method comprises the steps of receiving, by one or more processors, a document containing one or more annotations, wherein the one or more annotations are associated with one or more files; determining, by one or more processors, an annotation has been selected from the one or more annotations to access a particular file associated with the selected annotation; linking, by one or more processors, a storage location for the particular file associated with the selected annotation to the received document; and displaying, by one or more processors, content of the particular file associated with the selected annotation in the received document.
