Procedure for the creation of a control interface for a standard application in a computer network browser
First Claim
1. A method for creating a user interface for a standard application in the window of a browser that runs on a personal computer workstation of a computer network whereby the standard application runs on a server connected to the computer network and at least one user works with the standard application from the personal computer workstation over the computer network wherein the standard application can be serviced by means of a user interface and work results from the standard application can be returned through the output fields of the user interface;
- said method comprising;
presenting separate components of the user interface of the standard application in the browser of the personal computer workstation, by converting the state and the function of the separate components into standard code that can be interpreted by the browser and transferring to the standard application in the requested format the data entered by the user and returned by the browser.

Abstract
Software for creating a user interface for a standard application in a browser window of a personal computer workstation on a computer network is integrated in the standard application. The standard application runs on a server and at least one user works through the network with the standard application, which is shown on the user'"'"'s personal computer workstation and which can be serviced remotely. The work result is subsequently returned to the standard application. The method is implemented in such a way that the software module can return the separate components of the user interface of the standard application to the browser of the personal computer workstation. The software module converts the state and the function of the components into standard code that can be interpreted by the browser and transfers to the standard application in the requested format the user'"'"'s data returned by the browser.
