Rendering a page using a previously stored DOM associated with a different page

A computer device configured to render pages, the computer device comprising:

• a memory;
• and
• at least one processor, coupled to the memory, and configured to:
• fetch a first page;
• store a document object model (DOM) shared among different pages in the memory, wherein the DOM stored in the memory defines a relative structure associated with the first page, and wherein the DOM comprises a static portion corresponding to one or more common elements shared among the different pages and a first dynamic portion unique to the first page;
• transition to a second page;
• retrieve only dynamic data corresponding to a second dynamic portion unique to the second page from a server in response to the second page having a structure similar to the relative structure associated with the first page as defined in the DOM shared among the different pages;
• create the second dynamic portion unique to the second page based on the dynamic data retrieved from the server;
• update the DOM stored in the memory to include the second dynamic portion unique to the second page such that the static portion in the updated DOM is shared among the first page and the second page and defines a relationship between the static portion corresponding to the one or more common elements shared among to the different pages, the first dynamic portion unique to the first page, and the second dynamic portion unique to the second page;
• and
• render the second page according to at least the relationship defined in the DOM between the static portion corresponding to the one or more common elements shared among the different pages and the second dynamic portion unique to the second page.

A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium comprising computer-executable instructions for efficient page rendering on a computer device, wherein executing the computer-executable instructions on the computer device causes the computer device to:

• fetch a first page;
• store a document object model (DOM) shared among different pages in a memory at the computer device, wherein the DOM stored in the memory defines a relative structure associated with the first page, and wherein the DOM comprises a static portion corresponding to one or more common elements shared among the different pages and a first dynamic portion unique to the first page;
• transition to a second page;
• retrieve only dynamic data corresponding to a second dynamic portion unique to the second page from a server in response to the second page having a structure similar to the relative structure associated with the first page as defined in the DOM shared among the different pages;
• create the second dynamic portion unique to the second page based on the dynamic data retrieved from the server;
• update the DOM stored in the memory to include the second dynamic portion unique to the second page such that the static portion in the updated DOM is shared among the first page and the second page and defines a relationship between the static portion corresponding to the one or more common elements shared among the different pages, the first dynamic portion unique to the first page, and the second dynamic portion unique to the second page;
• and
• render the second page according to at least the relationship defined in the DOM between the static portion corresponding to the one or more common elements shared among the different pages and the second dynamic portion unique to the second page.

An apparatus, comprising:

• means for fetching a first page;
• means for storing a document object model (DOM) shared among different pages, wherein the DOM defines a relative structure associated with the first page, and wherein the DOM comprises a static portion corresponding to one or more common elements shared among the different pages and a first dynamic portion unique to the first page;
• means for transitioning to a second page;
• means for retrieving only dynamic data corresponding to a second dynamic portion unique to the second page from a server in response to the second page having a structure similar to the relative structure associated with the first page as defined in the DOM shared among the different pages;
• means for creating the second dynamic portion unique to the second page based on the dynamic data retrieved from the server;
• means for updating the DOM, wherein the updated DOM includes the second dynamic portion unique to the second page such that the static portion is shared among the first page and the second page, and wherein the updated DOM further defines a relationship between the static portion corresponding to the one or more common elements shared among the different pages, the first dynamic portion unique to the first page, and the second dynamic portion unique to the second page;
• and
• means for rendering the second page according to at least the relationship defined in the DOM between the static portion corresponding to the one or more common elements shared among the different pages and the second dynamic portion unique to the second page.

An apparatus for efficient page rendering on a computer device, comprising:

• a portal component configured to receive a first request for a first page;
• and
• a web component configured to:
• fetch the first page;
• store a document object model (DOM) shared among different pages in a memory at the apparatus, wherein the DOM stored in the memory defines a relative structure associated with the first page, and wherein the DOM comprises a static portion corresponding to one or more common elements shared among the different pages and a first dynamic portion unique to the first page;
• transition to a second page in response to a second request received at the portal component;
• retrieve only dynamic data corresponding to a second dynamic portion unique to the second page from a server in response to the second page having a structure similar to the relative structure associated with the first page as defined in the DOM shared among the different pages;
• create the second dynamic portion unique to the second page based on the dynamic data retrieved from the server;
• and
• update the DOM stored in the memory to include the second dynamic portion unique to the second page such that the static portion in the updated DOM is shared among the first page and the second page and defines a relationship between the static portion corresponding to the one or more common elements shared among the different pages, the first dynamic portion unique to the first page, and the second dynamic portion unique to the second page;
• and
• a rendering component configured to render the second page according to at least the relationship defined in the DOM between the static portion corresponding to the one or more common elements shared among the different pages and the second dynamic portion unique to the second page.
