  • Patent number: 7437660
    Abstract: A method and system for downloading an editable web page having corresponding dynamic content. Dynamically rendered web pages are provided with a special script therein. In response to a client request for a dynamically rendered web page, the server sends the editable page with the script embedded therein. When the script is executed at the client, it creates a frame in the browser, and provides a reference to a DLL that is located on the server and the address for the same requested web page. The DLL is executed at the server and, in response, opens the dynamically rendered web page, retrieves dynamic content for the web page from a database, loads the dynamic content into the document, and returns the web page with the dynamic content to the browser as the content for the newly created frame.
