Abstract: Disclosed are various embodiments for performing cross-domain communication using messenger frames. One or more messenger frames are dynamically generated in response to determining that a message is to be sent from a first frame in one domain to a second frame in another domain in a client. The message is sent from the first frame to the second frame by embedding the message in addresses of the messenger frames. Code executing in the first frame and code executing in the second frame are restricted from direct communication in the client.

Abstract: The present invention encompasses a method in a client-server communication system wherein the method comprises one or more stages for content transformation, which renders data into presentation format. The method comprises at least stage for content transformation that is based on device used by the client.

Abstract: An Interface Markup Language (“IML”) file specifies abstract server interface definitions called “operations” that return abstract content descriptions called “entities”. Each entity specifies a set of operations that the entity can invoke. The combined set of entities and operations together define an abstract flow diagram of an application. A computer readable medium has instructions stored thereon which, when executed by a processor, cause the processor to perform a sequence of steps in order to make application code that is based on a flow diagram of an application. The steps include making an IML file that includes an operation list section delimited by an operation list marker and an entity list section delimited by an entity list marker. The operation list section specifies a series of operations supported by an application server. The entity list section describes a set of entities which constitute an interface to an application running on the application server.

Abstract: Apparatus, and an associated method, provides OOB (out-of-band) messages to a mobile client. OOB messages formed of alerts, notifications, push messages, advertising, as well as many other types of messages, are able to be provided to the client. The OOB messages are provided to the client by a gateway, such as a WAP gateway operable in a communication system pursuant to the WAP standard.

Abstract: Apparatus, and an associated method, provides OOB (out-of-band) and other asynchronous messages to a mobile client. OOB and other asynchronous messages formed of alerts, notifications, push messages, advertising, as well as many other types of messages, are able to be provided to the client. The OOB and other asynchronous messages are provided to the client by a gateway, such as a WAP gateway operable in a communication system pursuant to the WAP standard.
