A method, medium, and system to receive a request for the first web resource to access the second web resource; request authorization to access to the second web resource by the first web resource; receive authorization to grant access to the second web resource for the first web resource; transmit an application programming interface (API) call from the first web resource to the second web resource for the first web resource having authorized access to the second web resource; and transmit a reply to the API call from the second web resource to the first web resource.

Adapter for communication between web applications within a browser

The present disclosure describes methods, systems, and computer program products for providing a multi-level user interface theming engine. One computer-implemented method includes initiating a start of a user interface following receipt of a theming request, requesting available themes for presentation in the user interface, receiving a request to access an existing theme, receiving theming data responsive to a generated request to load the existing theme, and receiving a request to publish modified theming data.

Multi-level user interface theming engine

A user interface (UI) area having multiple data sources is regenerated based upon changes made to UI elements associated with the UI area. To efficiently regenerate the changed UI elements, a processor of the computer determines UI controls and data objects associated with the UI area to generate a conditional list. The conditional list includes corresponding events representing an association of the UI controls and the data objects. Based upon a modification to a data object, an optimized data binding structure is generated to determine a corresponding UI control that is affected by the modification. An updated UI controls list is computed to include the affected one or more UI controls based upon the optimized data binding structure. Based upon a trigger to render the UI area, the affected UIs are regenerated on the UI area by updating the affected UI controls based upon the modification.

Regenerating a user interface area

A user interface (UI) area having multiple data sources is synchronized based upon changes made to UI elements associated with the UI area. To synchronize the changed UI elements, a processor of the computer determines UI controls and data objects associated with the UI area. Based upon a modification to a data object, a corresponding UI control that is affected by the modification is determined. A synchronization process is triggered to determine updated UI controls and updatable UI controls from the UI controls that are affected by the modification. The UI area is synchronized by updating the updatable UI controls based upon the modification.

Synchronizing a user interface area

Methods and apparatus, including computer program products, are provided for providing value help. In one aspect, there is provided a computer-implemented method. The method may include receiving, from a user interface, an input. Based on the received input, one or more fields may be determined from a plurality of columns of a table of a database. The determined one or more fields may be provided to the user interface for presentation as a value help to the input being presented at the user interface. Related apparatus, systems, methods, and articles are also described.

Multiple field look ahead and value help

Successively displaying panels in a computer user interface. A method includes displaying a first panel of a plurality of panels. Each of the panels includes different information. The computer user interface has a plurality of navigation controls by which a user can navigate to any of the panels to access its information. A first setting of the navigation controls causes the first panel to be displayed. A user input requesting access to a second panel is received, there being at least two settings of the navigation controls that will cause the second panel to be displayed. The method includes ceasing to display the first panel and displaying the second panel using one of the at least two different settings by which more of the navigation controls remain unchanged from the first setting. Methods may be used in hierarchies and in arrangements that do not form trees.

Successively displaying panels in a computer user interface

A system for extending a business object used in a user interface. The system includes a service layer comprising the business object. The system also includes a models framework comprising a meta model including business data of the business object, wherein the meta model is extended for use in the user interface. The system further includes a processing engine for generating the user interface, wherein the processing engine provides a platform for extending the meta model for use in the user interface.

Adaptive models framework

When a user clicks a Back button or a Forward button while reviewing an application page in a browser, the client performs an action in response which is specified by a server. The Back and Forward buttons may be controlled by the server and may be used to provide real undo and redo functionality for stateful server applications. The functionality may be implemented using invisible pages loaded in the browser. If it is determined that undo or redo cannot be performed, the client may continue to display the application page, optionally with a message to the user.
