  • Patent number: 11017052
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method may facilitate user interaction with an interactive form. In one aspect, the method may detect a selection of the form by a user of a client device. The method may then automatically provide instructions that cause a web browser application of the client device to (1) display a submit control inside a form interaction framework area of a form interaction page, the form interaction framework area being outside a form container area of the form interaction page, (2) use a viewer software component to display the interactive form inside the form container area while the submit control is displayed in the form interaction framework area, and (3) in response to detecting a user activation of the submit control, communicate the user activation to the interactive form using a programmatic interface of the viewer software component such that the interactive form executes the form submission function.

  • Patent number: 10482150
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method may facilitate user interaction with an interactive form. In one aspect, the method may detect a selection of the form by a user of a client device. The method may, in response, provide scripting language instructions that cause a web browser application of the client device to (1) display, according to the scripting language instructions, an interactive control corresponding to a form function inside a form interaction framework area of a form interaction page, the form interaction framework area being outside a form container area of the form interaction page, (2) use a form container software component to display the interactive form inside the form container area, and (3) in response to detecting a user activation of the interactive control, communicate the user activation to the interactive form using a programmatic interface of the form container software component such that the interactive form executes the form function.
