A first computing device receives a first request from a client computing device, wherein the first request includes a markup language request. The first computing device transmits the first request to a second computing device, wherein the second computing device services the first request. The first computing device receives the serviced first request, wherein the serviced first request includes a manifest tag. The first computing device caches the serviced first request. The first computing device transmits the serviced first request to the client computing device.

Preemptive caching of data

A method, system and computer program product for delivering tailored specific content to a mobile device. A shim application is provided to the mobile device by a content server after the mobile device visits the content server for the first time. The shim application detects the capabilities of the mobile device, such as the screen size, screen resolution, memory size, browser capabilities, etc. The shim application then includes such information in the header of the requests, such as a request for content, sent from the mobile device to the content server. The content server then generates the requested content in the appropriate format based on the information provided in the header. In this manner, the content server will now be able to ensure that the content provided by the content server for a particular mobile device will be appropriately displayed on the mobile device.

Tailoring content to be delivered to mobile device based upon features of mobile device

Cache control for Web application resources can include receiving a cache manifest for a Web application, wherein the cache manifest specifies a Web page of the Web application, and determining, using a processor, a resource that is required by the Web page. A closure collection can be built that includes the resource required by the Web page. A reference to the resource can be written to the cache manifest.

Cache control for web application resources

A method, system and computer program product for electronically communicating a correct Uniform Resource Locator (URL). The browser detects a copying of a URL to be placed in an electronic communication. In response to determining that the URL specifies an address of a loopback interface of the computing device via a localhost, the browser obtains the Fully Qualified Domain Name (FQDN) or Internet Protocol (IP) address of the computing device hosting the resource (e.g., application) referenced by the URL. The browser replaces the localhost in the URL with either the FQDN or IP address of the computing device. The modified URL is then made available to be shared with other users via electronic communication. In this manner, the localhost is automatically replaced with the correct domain name or IP address thereby ensuring that third party users will be able to retrieve the resource hosted on the computing device.

Method, system and computer program product are provided to increase the efficiency of the development of Java Enterprise Edition (J2EE) applications. A project may be divided into modules which may be developed by independent teams. The files within each module are classified as independent of resources in other modules or dependent. Independent files may be packaged into a single, integrated web application archive (WAR) file without further processing. Corresponding dependent files are compared and any conflicts are resolved. The resulting files may then be packaged into the WAR file.

A method, apparatus and computer instructions are disclosed for maintaining the compatibility of a multiple nodes in a distributed systems management environment with multiple configuration settings, by transforming the configuration data stored in the master repository (one possible realization is where XML documents contain the configuration data) from one version of the product to a previous version of the product. For multiple versions of the systems management environment, a transformation pipeline process (one possible realization of such a process may utilize XSLT) can be used by a 'master' node to transform the configuration data multiple times for each version of the environment, until the configuration data has the format of the intended recipient 'slave' node. Also, by performing the transformation process on the &#x201c;master&#x201d; side of the computing environment, &#x201c;slave&#x201d; nodes with older version configuration settings can continue to operate without having to upgrade their software applications in this regard.
