Methods and Systems for Using Multipart Messaging with Preset Constraints

A computer readable medium having stored therein instructions executable by a computing device to cause the computing device to perform functions of:

• receiving a request from a device for information content from a webpage;
• retrieving a document associated with the webpage, the document including references to subcomponents;
• based on a constraint, requesting from a content server a partial set of the subcomponents referenced by the document;
• and
• sending the document and the partial set of the subcomponents received from the content server to the device in a single response.

A server comprising:

• a processor;
• memory including machine language instructions executable by the processor to perform functions comprising:
• receiving a request from a device for information content from a webpage;
• retrieving a document associated with the webpage, the document including references to subcomponents;
• based on a constraint, requesting from a content server a partial set of the subcomponents referenced by the document;
• and
• a normalizer for transcoding the document and the partial set of the subcomponents received from the content server into a format displayable on the device, wherein the normalizer sends the transcoded document and the partial set of the subcomponents to the device in a single response.
