Web Page Optimization

A method of controlling a server computer in communication with a computer-readable storage medium, the method comprising:

• receiving a request at a server computer;
• determining a source code corresponding to the request;
• retrieving an optimized version of the source code from the computer readable storage medium;
• executing by the server computer a server-side executable portion of the optimized version of the source code to generate a server-side execution result;
• retrieving a location of a replaced character;
• replacing a first character in the server-side execution result at the location with a second character;
• and
• providing the server-side execution result with the second character at the location in response to the request.

An apparatus comprising:

• a computer-readable physical medium containing instructions executable on a computer and that when executed cause the computer to:
• select an original source code;
• identify a server-side executable portion of the original source code and a server-side static portion of the original source code;
• assign an identifier to the server-side static portion of the original source code;
• separate the server-side executable portion of the original source code from the server-side static portion of the original source code;
• combine the server-side executable portion of the original source code with the identifier to create an intermediate source code, wherein the identifier replaces the server-side static portion of the original source code;
• and
• create a client-side executable program operable to replace the identifier in the intermediate source code with the server-side static portion of the original source code, wherein the client-side executable program comprises the intermediate source code and the server-side static portion of the original source code, wherein the client-side executable program when executed by one or more computers produces the visual output.

A method implemented on a computer in communication with a computer-readable storage medium, the method comprising:

• selecting an original source code that includes instructions that when executed by one or more computers produce a visual output;
• identifying a server-side executable portion of the original source code and a server-side static portion of the original source code;
• assigning an identifier to the server-side executable portion of the original source code;
• separating the server-side static portion of the original source code from the server-side executable portion of the original source code;
• combining the server-side static portion of the original source code with the identifier to create an intermediate source code, wherein the identifier replaces the server-side executable portion of the original source code;
• creating a server-side executable program containing a client-side executable program operable to replace the identifier in the intermediate source code with the server-side executable portion of the original source code, wherein the server-side executable program comprises the intermediate source code and the server-side executable portion of the original source code, wherein the server-side executable program when executed by one or more computers produces the visual output;
• and
• updating at least a portion of the computer readable medium to include a representation of the server-side executable program.
