  • Patent number: 6608634
    Abstract: A system for displaying operations of a dynamic web site with integrated database without connecting to a network is disclosed. An off-line presentation of a selected web site is developed by extracting selected portions of hypertext markup language (“HTML”) documents and databases associated with the selected web site from the server to a client computer. The present invention automates the process of extracting HTML documents from the selected web site by using a script of commands. Based on the commands in the script, the client computer running a script engine is configured to transmit a request for transfer of the selected HTML documents and separately saved files which are related to the selected HTML documents including text, forms, images, sounds, videos, and other sections of the HTML documents. The off-line presentation is stored in the hard drive of a stand-alone system and is executed by using a web browser to allow a user to interact with the selected web site.
