Method and system for performing automated transactions using a server-side script-engine
First Claim
1. A method to perform an automated transaction having multiple operations, a subset of which are key operations, the method including:
- responsive to a request to execute a first script on a first script-engine, executing the first script on the first script-engine, the first script having a plurality of script commands corresponding to multiple operations of the transaction;
prompting a user to input critical data, the critical data being directly associated with the key operations of the transaction;
capturing the critical data associated with the key operations of the transaction; and
, automatically performing the multiple operations of the transaction on a first server without user interaction according to the plurality of script commands, using the critical data during the performance of the key operations.

Abstract
A method and an apparatus for performing automated transactions are disclosed. According to one aspect of the present invention, a script-engine associated with a particular server receives a request to execute a script. The script-engine executes a script and prompts a user to enter critical data directly related to the goal sought to be achieved by the script. After receiving the critical data related to the transaction, the script automatically executes and communicates commands to a server. The script automatically communicates the critical data to the server upon request by the server. In addition, the script retrieves and enters non-critical data without user interaction. The server performs operations according to the commands received from the script-engine to automatically carry out the transaction.
