1. A method for operating a browser on a device comprising the steps of:
- receiving browser content from a server wherein said browser content includes at least one command;
transmitting a first request to a port of said device based on said at least one command;
receiving a response to said first request from an application on said device wherein said application is associated with said port of said device and said response to said first request indicates said application is triggered; and

Abstract
The present invention relates to application program control, in which a browser 203 receives content 208 from a server 205 and, based on the browser content, transmit a request 209 to a port on a device 202. A response is received 211 to the request from an application 204 associated with the port which indicates that the application 204 is triggered. A second request is transmitted 217 to the port on the device 202 to indicate to the application 204 that the browser 203 will handover control, at least in part, of the device 202 to the application 204.
