Abstract: Mechanisms for binding an event handler with an event in association with a component of a hierarchical structure are provided. The mechanisms receive a structure document specifying an event, an event handler, and a binding of the event handler with the event. The mechanisms further associate the event and event handler with one or more nodes of a hierarchical model of the hierarchical structure stored in a storage device of the data processing system. Moreover, the mechanisms bind the event handler with the event for the one or more nodes in accordance with the hierarchical model. In addition, the mechanisms generate one or more objects for implementing the hierarchical structure in a framework corresponding to the hierarchical model. The structure document specifies the event binding of the event handler with the event type in a declarative manner.

Abstract: A method, system, and computer program product for document analysis and presentation to a user, the user having a special need, are provided in the illustrative embodiments. A document is received for presentation to the user, the document including a plurality of parts, the plurality of parts including a preferred part, and wherein the user has to reach the preferred part in the document by sequentially processing a subset of parts preceding the preferred part in the document. The document is analyzed according to a set of attributes. The document is restructured to form a restructured document such that user can directly access the preferred part of the restructured document without having to sequentially process the restructured document. The restructured document is presented to the user having special needs.

Abstract: Mechanisms are provided for debugging a graphical user interface (GUI) of a computer application code. The mechanisms detect a user interaction with a first renderable object of the GUI during execution of the computer application code. The mechanisms identify one or more second renderable objects of the GUI that are reachable from the first renderable object based on an identity of the first renderable object and a type of the user interaction. Moreover, the mechanisms apply one or more compliance rules to the first renderable object and one or more second renderable objects, the compliance rules specifying requirements for at least one relationship between the first renderable object and the one or more second renderable objects. Additionally, the mechanisms output results of the application of the one or more compliance rules to the first renderable object and one or more second renderable objects.

Abstract: Exemplary embodiments disclose a method and system for providing a runtime state of an application on a user interface. The method and system include rendering a user interface element on the user interface in response to a request for a capture of the runtime state of the application. The method and system also include generating control code for managing a response of the user interface element to the user action. The user interface element corresponds to the runtime state and to data including at least one of control data and inaccessible data. The control data corresponds to control of the user interface element. The inaccessible data corresponding to a portion of the user interface element not depicted on the user interface for the capture.

Abstract: A user interface for repositioning Web page components that includes an HTML table. Each cell of the table can represents a Web page component that is able to be repositioned. Each cell can include an identifier and a user selectable position control. The identifier can identify the Web page component. The user selectable position control can accept user input designating a position of the component within the Web page. An activation control can accept input entered within the user selectable position control when selected. Activation of the activation control can result in the Web page being reconfigured so that the position of the Web page components corresponds to positions specified by the position controls. In one embodiment, the user interface can be an accessibility option for users having difficulty with a drag and drop interface.

Abstract: A method, computer program product, and data processing system for supporting an integrated development environment (IDE) for efficient graphical user interface (GUI) programming in source code are provided. The IDE user selects one or more GUI components for immediate rendering. The IDE, which has its own GUI, contains an event handler that detects modifications to the source code to the selected components. When a modification is detected, the IDE attempts to compile the source code to the modified component. If the compilation succeeds, the IDE dynamically loads the newly compiled code and executes the newly compiled code to render the component in the IDE's own runtime environment. Subsequent modifications to the component's source code result in immediate recompilation and rerendering of the component by the IDE so that the user is provided instant feedback as the GUI source code is modified.
