Method and system for multi-page web applications with central control

Abstract

A method and system for multi-page web applications with central control are disclosed. A web application description is provided to a central controller. The web application description has at least one statement to cause the display of a web page. At least one web page description is provided having at least one link that points to the central controller and that identifies the web application description. The central controller responds to an initial invokation thereof, causing statements in the web application to be executed. Before execution of the at least one statement that causes the display of a web page, implicit state information about the web application is stored, including storing information identifying a statement to execute. Upon executing the at least one statement that causes the display of a web page, execution of the web application description terminates. A user invokes the link in the web page thereby re-invoking the central contoller, and the central controller responds to the re-invoking, by reading the stored implicit state information and beginning execution at the statement identified thereby.

Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
