Abstract: A computer implemented system for a dynamic screen generation and navigation engine is provided. The system includes a set of screen templates, a screen data document, and a screen manager. The screen data document includes screen data for at least one screen template of the set of screen templates. The screen manager includes a generator engine and a navigator engine. In response to user input, the generator engine obtains screen data from the screen data document, obtains a screen template from the set of screen templates based on the obtained screen data, combines the obtained screen data with the obtained screen template to generate a screen, and displays the generated screen. The navigator engine obtains a user selection for the generated screen, references the screen data corresponding to the obtained user selection to determine a next screen to generate, and prompts the generator engine to generate the next screen based on the referenced screen data.

Abstract: One illustrative method for concatenating an unselected content stream (such as advertising) with a selected content stream to create a digital content stream includes interactions between a first server and a second server. The first server can receive a selection of the selected content stream from a hand-held device, transmit the selection to a second server, receive a playlist having location identifiers that identify at least the selected content stream and an unselected content stream, and communicate with a plurality of streaming servers collectively having streaming digital content including the selected and unselected content streams. The first server further communicates to the hand-held device a play time of the streaming digital content, concatenates the streaming digital content from the plurality of streaming servers, and provides the concatenated streaming digital content to the hand-held device as a single content stream.

Abstract: Systems and methods for seamless retrieval of coupons and other non-standard items to a mobile device. Some method embodiments comprise: receiving a communication that specifies a user id and a coupon id, and storing the user id and a location of the coupon in a table in response to said receiving. A response to the communication is sent to the mobile device to invoke an application that accesses the table to determine the coupon location and uses the coupon location to download the content. The communication may be a web page request from a browser on the mobile device, and the application may be a coupon organizer external to the web browser. The communication may further include origination information, so that once the retrieval is complete, the mobile device once again displays the original web page and the user is given the perception that the download was accomplished within the browser.
