  • Publication number: 20140059112
    Abstract: A run-time application-generated change to dynamic web content, generated during an application run-time by a dynamic web application, is detected in response to user run-time interactions with the dynamic web content rendered by the dynamic web application that changed the dynamic web content during the run-time. The detected run-time application-generated change to the dynamic web content is parsed. The parsed run-time application-generated change to the dynamic web content is compared with web content compliance rules that define specifications for web content representation. A noncompliant element associated with the parsed run-time application-generated change is identified based upon the comparison with the web content compliance rules. A run-time correction of the identified noncompliant element within the dynamic web content changed by the dynamic web application is performed to cause the identified noncompliant element to comply with the web content compliance rules.

  • Patent number: 8577973
    Abstract: A computer implemented method correlates a digital resource with an electronic message. A processor detects a focus on a targeted item that identifies a digital resource. The targeted item is in a user history that presents a history of a user's access to multiple digital resources. The processor then auto-populates a draft of an electronic message with the targeted item that was focused in the user history.

  • Patent number: 8539224
    Abstract: Obscuring form data to be passed in forms that are sent in messages over a communications network. The form data to be obscured is removed from a form and inserted as a portion of a Uniform Resource Location (“URL”) string. The obscured form data may comprise hidden fields and/or links. An obfuscation is then applied to the portion of the URL string, thereby obscuring the information for sending on an outbound message. The original information is recovered from an inbound message which contains the obscured information by reversing the processing used for the obscuring. In one aspect, the obfuscation comprises encryption. In another aspect, the obfuscation comprises creating a tiny URL that replaces the portion of the URL string.

  • Patent number: 8503652
    Abstract: Conference calls are managed using a permanent or default password associated with a particular call-in phone number and at least one temporary, dynamically-generated password for that same call-in phone number. The temporary passwords are preferably applicable for a particular time period or interval. If a temporary password is not defined for the time period in which a conference call takes place, the default password may be used. Conference call access is restricted to participants who provide the proper password—namely, the temporary password during a time period for which a temporary password has been generated, and the default password otherwise.

  • Patent number: 8468203
    Abstract: A server system runs a bot service that registers an FAQ (frequently asked questions) for a document having an embedded object. The FAQ includes one or more question-and-answer (Q&A) pairs. The bot service receives, from each electronics device that renders a copy of the document, a request from the embedded object for the FAQ registered for the document, and transmits the FAQ to each electronic device from which a request is received. Each electronics device displays the FAQ, including the one or more Q&A pairs, within its rendered copy of the document. Any viewer of a copy of the document with the embedded object can submit a question to the bot service through the embedded object. The bot service uses a messaging service to obtain an answer to the question from an author. The FAQs displayed at the electronics devices are updated to include the new Q&A pair.

  • Patent number: 8453041
    Abstract: Obscuring information in messages to be exchanged over a communications network. In one aspect, the information comprises path name information and parameters for use in a Uniform Resource Locator (“URL”). In another aspect, the information comprises links and parameters used in forms, where hidden parameters are removed from a form and used as URL parameters. A compression dictionary is used to create a compressed form of the information. An identifier of the dictionary and an error detection code (such as a checksum) computed over the compressed information are concatenated with the compressed information, and this is encoded for sending on an outbound message. The original information is then recovered from an inbound message which contains the obscured information by reversing the processing used for the obscuring.

  • Publication number: 20130083287
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for manufacturing a contact lens having a visible mark including the steps of (i) curing a hydrogel having reactive components including a leuco dye and a silicone component to form the contact lens and (ii) activating the leuco dye in at least a portion of said contact lens to change the color of the leuco dye to create the visible mark; wherein the leuco dye contains at least one methacrylate, acrylate, or styrene functional group, and the leuco dye polymerizes with the silicone component during the curing step.

  • Publication number: 20130067302
    Abstract: A method, system and computer program product for integrating a calendaring system with a mashup page. A mashup server accesses the calendar data inputted by a user to create or edit an entry in a calendar application. The mashup server provides the user access to widgets to be included on a mashup page, where the widgets use the accessed calendar information so that the widgets provide information to the recipients of the calendared event. In this manner, the widgets provide information that normally would be accessible by the participants via links to a myriad of disjoint applications thereby negating the fractured experience of the participants. Upon finalizing the mashup page, the mashup page is saved as a Uniform Resource Location (URL) in the created/edited calendar entry. The mashup page is later transmitted by the mashup server to the recipients of the calendar entry.

  • Patent number: 8364763
    Abstract: In a method and system for removing email forwarding duplication, when an email was sent for the first time, the email was assigned a unique identifier. An aggregate recipient list was created and associated with the unique identifier. When the email is to be forwarded, the aggregate recipient list has recipients previously forwarded the email. The recipient list of the forwarding email is compared with the aggregate recipient list. If duplicate email addresses are found, the duplicate email addresses are displayed to a sender of the forwarding email. If the sender chooses not to send the forwarding email to the duplicate email addresses, the duplicate email addresses are removed from the recipient list of the forwarding email. New recipients of the forwarding email are added to the aggregate recipient list. The forwarding email with the unique identifier is sent to the recipient list.
