Method, apparatus, and system for immediate posting of changes in a client server environment
First Claim
1. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium with computer program code embodied thereon, wherein the computer program code is configured to be executed by a processor to:
- display a first field and a second field together on a user interface of a client system, the first field displayed on the user interface capable of receiving user input on the client system to change a value of the first field, the second field displayed on the user interface having at least an attribute that is dependent upon the value of the first field;
detect, on the client system, whether or not the value of the first field has changed;
in response to a determination from said detecting that the value of the first field has changed, send the value of the first field for reception at a server system over a network, the server program being configured to process the value of the first field and determine an update to the attribute of the second field; and
receive the update to the attribute of the second field from the server system.

Abstract
According to one aspect of the present invention, a method is provided in which a first field and a second field of a data record are displayed to a user using a client program, the second field having one or more attributes that are dependent upon the value of the first field. In response to a detection that the value of the first field has changed, the value of the first field is sent to a server program. The server program is configured to process the change in value of the first field and determine corresponding changes with respect to the one or more attributes of the second field. The corresponding changes with respect to the one or more attributes of the second field are sent from the server program to the client program.

17. A method, implemented in a computer network and executed by a processor of a computer system to:
-
display a first field and a second field together on a user interface of a client system, the first field displayed on the user interface capable of receiving user input on the client system to change a value of the first field, the second field displayed on the user interface having at least an attribute that is dependent upon the value of the first field, wherein the computer network comprises the computer system; detect, on the client system, whether or not the value of the first field has changed; in response to a determination from said detecting that the value of the first field has changed, send the value of the first field for reception at a server system over a network, the server program being configured to process the value of the first field and determine an update to the attribute of the second field; and receive the update to the attribute of the second field from the server system. - View Dependent Claims (18)

19. A client system in a computer network, the client system comprising:
-
a processor; and a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium, wherein the non-transitory computer-readable storage medium and the processor are coupled to one another, and the non-transitory computer-readable storage medium is encoded with computer program code configured to be executed by the processor to display a first field and a second field together on the user interface of a client system, the first field displayed on the user interface capable of receiving user input on the client system to change a value of the first field, the second field displayed on the user interface having at least an attribute that is dependent upon the value of the first field; detect, on the client system, whether or not the value of the first field has changed; in response to a determination from said detecting that the value of the first field has changed, send the value of the first field for reception at a server system over a network, the server program being configured to process the value of the first field and determine an update to the attribute of the second field; and receive the update to the attribute of the second field from the server system. - View Dependent Claims (20)
