Abstract
A program platform performs data binding process between a user interface and data for display. The invention decouples the user interface and the data, along with its application logic, by providing a mechanism for binding data to the user interface. Dependency property binding allows for binding of data with dynamic properties of an element of a data-programming model of a platform. A fallback value is a user-supplied value that can be used when the binding cannot produce a value from an associated data source. Priority Bindings allow a list of bindings that can become active when other, previous bindings fail.
