Abstract

Included are method, article of manufacture, and device that serve to embed a universal script object into programming code used for rendering a web page, convert the universal script object into JavaScript, and upon receiving a request for a web page, send the converted and embedded universal script object towards a requestor. The universal script object may be converted from HTML or some other language.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A method of converting code to render a web page prior to run-time at a client, implemented by a server, the method comprising:
receiving, by the server, programming code in JavaScript for rendering the webpage;
receiving, by the server, a script object template for a user interface item from a universal script object library, the script object template comprising HTML code configured to render the user interface item;
embedding, by the server, the HTML code of the script object template into the programming code to form a combined code;
converting, by the server, the combined code into a compiled object class in JavaScript, the converting comprising: converting the entire HTML code in the combined code into a rendering function, wherein the rendering function comprises JavaScript code configured to build a Document Object Model node for the user interface item during run-time at the client; and
upon receiving a request for the web page, by the server, sending the compiled object class to the client;
wherein during run-time at the client no string parsing is involved when rendering the user interface item.

2. A computing device, comprising: a microprocessor;
memory coupled to the microprocessor,
the memory containing instructions, which when executed, cause the microprocessor to:
receive, by a server, programming code in JavaScript for rendering the webpage;
receive, by the server, a script object template for a user interface item from a universal script object library, the script object template comprising HTML code configured to render the user interface item;

embed, by the server, the HTML code of the script object template into the programming code to form a combined code;
convert, by the server, the combined code into a compiled object class in JavaScript, the converting comprising: converting the entire HTML code in the combined code into a rendering function, wherein the rendering function comprises JavaScript code configured to build a Document Object Model node for the user interface item during run-time at the client; and
upon receiving a request for the web page, by the server, send the compiled object class to the client;
wherein during run-time at the client no string parsing is involved when rendering the user interface item.

3. An article of manufacture comprising:
a non-transitory computer readable storage medium, the storage medium containing instructions, which when executed, cause a microprocessor to:
receive, by a server, programming code in JavaScript for rendering the webpage;
receive, by the server, a script object template for a user interface item from a universal script object library, the script object template comprising HTML code configured to render the user interface item;
embed, by the server, the HTML code of the script object template into the programming code to form a combined code;
convert, by the server, the combined code into a compiled object class in JavaScript, the converting comprising: converting the entire HTML code in the combined code into a rendering function, wherein the rendering function comprises JavaScript code configured to build a Document Object Model node for the user interface item during run-time at the client; and
upon receiving a request for the web page, by the server, send the compiled object class to the client;
wherein during run-time at the client no string parsing is involved when rendering the user interface item.
