The present invention provides an apparatus and method for accessing request header information used to transcode servlet output. The apparatus and method of the present invention includes a preamble that stores request header information from a request sent by a client device. The request header information is then provided to the transcoder along with the generated content data. The transcoder then performs appropriate transcoding on the generated content data based on the request header information supplied by the preamble. The transcoded content data is then sent to the client device. In this way, the client device is able to obtain content from a much larger set of content sources than with conventional systems.

Methods, systems and computer program products are provided for tailoring content for a session of a first data processing system communicating with a second data processing system by obtaining session specific information from the first data processing system and distributing tailoring functions between the first data processing system and the second data processing systems based upon the obtained session specific information. In particular, policies which control the distribution of tailoring functions between data processing systems based on session specific information may be obtained from a repository and tailoring functions distributed between the first data processing system and the second data processing system according to the obtained policies and the session specific information.

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.
