Methods, systems and computer program products which provide for communicating with a web browser executing on a remote/mobile processing system which is temporarily and intermittently connected to a second computer by storing in a persistent request queue at the second computer, a request from the web browser to a server application accessible to the second computer. Also disclosed are methods, systems and computer program products which allow for operation and management of asynchronous operations of a web browser where the operations are carried out by a server-side intercept module.

Server-side asynchronous form management

Methods, systems and computer program products are provided for communicating with a web browser executing on a remote/mobile processing system which is temporarily and intermittently connected to a second computer. According to the present invention, requests from the web browser to a server application accessible to the second computer are stored in a persistent request queue at the remote/mobile processing system. An interim response is provided to the web browser in response to the request from the client application. The stored request may be recalled to allow user modification of the stored request prior to the request being provided to the second computer for transmission to the server application.
