摘要:
A page is accessed in a computer-based environment. A user interface gallery that includes at least one computer-based module from a remote source is opened on or in the vicinity of the page. The computer-based module can be inserted on the page from the gallery. The gallery can be dynamically populated with one or more computer-based modules from various sources remote to the page. A pointer that represents a computer-based module can be populated to the gallery as an alternative. The computer-based module can then be inserted on the page from the remote source when the pointer is selected and placed on the page. The computer-based module can also be stored in a database for future use after it has been inserted on the page.

A database grouping and display system that groups a database by row and column in response to a user input. The database grouping and display system displays a raw, ungrouped database and allows a user to manipulate it as desired. The system displays the raw database and any manipulation results within a window of a web browser, thus allowing data analysis to be performed with the use of a common and inexpensive program. A user may group a database in order to group record entries within the database by common data entry. The user may group the record entries by row, by column, or by row and column. Each record entry grouping is referred to as a “metacell.” The database grouping and display system may further summarize the contents of each metacell and present a summary result along with the display of the metacell. This summary value is typically invoked for all metacells, but may alternately apply to a single row, column, or metacell, or for the entire document. The display state of the metacells may be toggled between a fully expanded and collapsed state. In the expanded state, all record entries within the metacell are visible, along with any summary values for the metacell. In a collapsed state, only summary values are shown in the metacell. This allows a user to see as much or as little detail for a metacell or range of metacells as desired.
摘要:
A page is accessed that contains at least one computer-based module. The computer-based module can present information obtained from one or more sources. The computer-based module includes properties, such as properties that affect the appearance of the computer-based module and the format of the information displayed by the computer-based module. The properties of the computer-based module can be stored in a database that is separate from the page. The properties of the computer-based module can be modified in a shared mode, accessible to all users of the page, or a personal mode, accessible by one user.
摘要:
A page is generated in a computer-based format that includes zones in which controls are inserted. The controls can present information or data that the controls obtain from one or more sources. Features such as the location, quantity, and properties of the zones and the controls can be set as desired when creating the page. Furthermore, the page can be created using a graphical layout. The page can be accessed in a computer-based environment, and properties of the controls, such as the size, position, or classification of presented information, can be manipulated while the page is being accessed.
摘要:
Method and system for dynamically capturing elements from a target Web page and displaying the captured elements in another Web page. A user first opens a Web Capture Web Part dialog box in a browser application program. The user navigates to the target server hosting the target Web page and sends an HTTP request to the target server to retrieve the target Web page. The target server returns the target Web page in an HTML string, which it is displayed in the Web Part Web Capture dialog box. The user then selects the elements that he or she wants to capture. The captured elements are then displayed in a Web part on the user's Web page and the returned HTML string is stored in a cache memory. Each subsequent time the captured elements are displayed, the elements are automatically updated from the target Web page.
