A method and apparatus in a data processing system for processing a print job. A call is received from an application to print the print job to a selected printer, wherein the print job includes a request to use a hardware service. A print preview of the print job prior to printing the print job is provided. Responsive to receiving an indication that the print job is to be printed after providing the print preview, the print job is sent to a device driver for the selected printer to print the print job. A determination is made as to whether the selected printer supports the hardware service. Responsive to a determination that the hardware service is unsupported by the selected printer, the hardware service is provided using a software simulation.

An apparatus and method for creating and automatically refreshing a composite web page. The present invention is a method, implementable in computer software, for selecting areas of interest from a plurality of web pages. The user creates a boundary around the areas of interest on each web page. The area inside the boundary, referred to as an information unit, remains visible while the area outside of the boundary becomes transparent. The user may then combine the plurality of information units together on a canvas web page. The user may then rearrange the information units on the canvas web page by dragging the information units to their intended destination. When the user has satisfactorily arranged the information units, the user may finalize the canvas web page into a composite web page. The invention may then refresh the composite web page automatically or upon user request.

A method for automatically displaying dynamic images as a sequence of still frames is disclosed. The method includes receiving dynamic image data, transforming the dynamic image data into static image data, and displaying, frame by frame, the static image data on a display device. The method may be employed in a computer, a computer network or a system which has a display information card having at least a port for receiving the dynamic image data, a processor for transforming the dynamic image data into static image data, an internal memory for storing the static image data, and a display device. In the preferred embodiment, the method is employed in a web browser.

A radio telephone that automatically terminates an incoming call to a voice mail comprising a transceiver for receiving the incoming call, and a sensor coupled to the transceiver producing a set of parameters related to a user in close proximity to the radio telephone. The incoming call is automatically terminated to the voice mail upon a determination that a subset of the set of parameters is within a range. A method for automatically terminating an incoming call for a radio telephone to a voice mail is described. The method includes providing a set of sensor input information, receiving an incoming call, obtaining at least part of the set of sensor input information, determining a sot of parameters related to the set of sensor input information, and terminating the incoming call to a voice mail system upon a determination that the set of parameters is within a predetermined range.

A method and implementing computer system are provided in which a request from a client for the display of a web page is processed by initially separating device-dependent display data from device-independent display data. The device-independent data is first sent back to the requesting client while the device-dependent data is being processed prior to being returned to the client. The device-dependent data processing includes separating bitmaps with text and bitmaps without text. The bitmaps are modified to suit the client system and the device-dependent modified bitmaps are returned to the client following the return of the device-independent data.

A method and apparatus for converting programs and source code files written in a programming language to equivalent markup language files is provided. The conversion may be accomplished by a static process or by a dynamic process. In a static process, a programming source code file is converted by an application to a markup language file. A document type definition file for a markup language is parsed; a source code statement from a source code file is parsed; an element defined in the document type definition file is selected based on an association between the element and an identifier of a routine in the source code statement; and the selected element is written to a markup language file. In a dynamic process, the program is executed to generate the markup language file that corresponds to the source code file or presentation steps of the program. The application program is executed; a document type definition file for a markup language is provided as input; an element defined in the document type definition file is selected based on a routine called by the application program; and the selected element is written to a markup language file.

In the system, method, and program of the present invention, the browser renders a multimedia object to the screen. The multimedia object may be one or more advertisements having links to one or more advertisers. The browser periodically captures screen images having the multimedia object. In one embodiment, the screen images are captured at configurable time intervals. In another embodiment, the screen images are captured when there is a change in content of a screen image. Each screen capture contains the necessary link(s) to access the advertiser. The screen captures are stored, during a configurable duration of time, in a chronological list. A user can replay at a later time some or all of the stored screen images that were captured. The user will have various identifiable snapshots of the advertisements and access to the necessary links to get back to a desired advertiser.

A microbrowser such as web-enabled wireless telephones and personal digital assistants allows a user to configure types of objects to be blocked from download including object memory consumption, display area, download time, and restrictions on animated images and executable scripts. Microbrowser state conditions such as battery level and network connection mode are considered when providing said limitations such that more restrictions may be placed during low battery periods to maximize battery life. For example, during low battery conditions or analog connection mode, a user may configure an enhanced microbrowser not to download advertisements, run scripts or animated objects in order to maximize remaining battery life. In another example, a user may configure an enhanced microbrowser to block the download of objects containing audio, or which will occupy more than a certain percentage of the available display area.

A web browser magnifies the content of the whole page in memory and displays the relevant portion in a magnifier with hyperlinks. The web browser then maps the magnified display to the original document. Thus, manipulation of the mouse in the magnified display may result in an action with respect to the original document. The user may then select a link for navigation within the magnified display. Alternatively, the web browser may analyze the original web page and construct magnifier contents on the basis of either the document object model, extensible markup language (XML), or hypertext markup language (HTML) representation of the magnified portion.

A method, system and program for notifying users when messaging sessions are recorded are provided. In response to receiving a request to record a messaging session, a requested selection of multiple message entries associated with the messaging session are recorded. Then, multiple users participating in the messaging session are notified of the recording of the requested selection of the multiple message entries from the messaging session. In particular, the output of the messaging session is adjusted for each of the multiple users to distinguish a selection from among the multiple message entries being recorded.
