Abstract
In one embodiment, a display engine and one or more data files are determined. They are then sent to a website provider'"'"'s network. The display engine and data are used to provide ASP functionality without contacting the ASP network for every user request. So even if the ASP network is not available, the ASP functionality provided by the display engine and data is always accessible to the website provider. For example, the website provider'"'"'s network may provide the ASP functionality by displaying data in one or more data files at a user'"'"'s display device. This is performed without relying on the availability of the ASP network.
