At least some embodiments described herein refer to the user of a rendering interpreter that receives data object(s) from code executing within a restricted environment container (such as an IFrame). The restricted environment container prevents the code from adversely impacting the performance and consistency of the user interface system as a whole, and also prevents the code from adversely impacting the performance of code running in other restricted environment containers.

Rendering interpreter for visualizing data provided from restricted environment container

A hierarchy of controls and parts, that are each in accordance with constraints of a computing executing context. A control is executable code that performs a function and which may impart a visualization. A part is a unit of visualization container that has its own visualization and/or shows visualizations from one or more compliant controls associated with the part.

Generating excutable code from complaint and non-compliant controls

A multi-act creation user interface element that is displayed when a user instructs a computing system to initiate creation of a resource that has multiple associated creation processing acts. For each of some or all of the creation processing acts, the multi-act creation user interface element causes a set of one or more controls to appear, which the user may then enter creation information into. The multi-step creation user interface element persists creation information so entered so that the creation information is available for further creation processing acts.

Multi-act creation user interface element

The customized execution of an executable accessed from a web server. Upon receiving a request for the executable, the web server determines a customization to be applied to the executable. For instance, arguments may be parsed from the Uniform Resource Locator (URL) of the request. The web server then sends a copy of the executable to the client, and provides customization argument(s) in the name of the executable. Thus, the name of the executable may differ, depending on the customization to be applied, although the executable binary itself may be the same. The client receives the executable copy, and interprets its name to determine the customization to be applied. For instance, the client may extract the argument(s) from the name of the executable, and provide those argument(s) to the executable when executed.

Name-based customization of executables from web

Embodiments are directed to managing server content and configuration from within a single server management application. In one embodiment, a computer system receives a client connection requesting initiation of a server management application. The computer system initiates the server management application. The application provides means managing content and server configuration settings from within the server management application. The computer system receives user input indicating a configuration settings change to be applied to the server and alters configuration settings on the server. The management application provides configuration access to those settings for which the client has access rights. The computer system receives user input indicating that one or more portions of content are to be published to the server and publishes the content portions to the server. The server management application implements a protocol provider model that facilitates content publishing to the server over a variety of different protocols.

Remote publishing and server administration

Facilitating installation of additional functionality on a web server. The method includes at a data store, receiving a request from a client to access programmatic code units. The data store includes programmatic code units. The programmatic code units are configured to provide additional web server functionality when installed at a web server. The client is distinct and separate from the data store. The method further includes, at the data store, providing information about one or more programmatic code units to the client. Input is received from the client selecting one or more programmatic code units to be installed on a web server. The web server is separate and distinct from both the data store and the client. The one or more selected programmatic code units are sent to the web server, where after the one or more selected programmatic code units are installed on the web server.
