Processor with separately configured display control file, CGI scripts, and processing program
View Patent ↗In a source file for a server, a Web display control division, a CGI script division and a processing program division are separated. The server has a Web server division, a CGI script control division and a processing program division and constitutes an interactive system together with an operation terminal unit in which inputs are made through a Web browser. A display control file describing Web page control information is provided for each Web page to be displayed, and the CGI script control division analyzes the description of the said display control file designated by said Web browser, executes said processing program following the description and outputs the result of the processing from Web server division to said Web browser. The name of processing programs activated for collection of information for the display of a Web page and control of the system and a method for displaying the result of such processing on the Web page are described in a script format in the display control file.
1. A processor connected via a network system to an operation terminal in which inputs are made through a Web browser, the processor comprising:
an interpreter;
a plurality of processing programs; and
a plurality of display control files which are provided for each web page and in which a processing program to be executed and an HTML tag for displaying a result of executing the processing program are described separately; wherein the interpreter interprets a CGI script according to a request from the operation terminal, specifies a display control file which is designated through the web browser by using a parameter designated by the operation terminal, executes a processing program which is described in the specified display control file, and outputs a display control information based on the HTML tag of the specified display control file and result of the processing.
2. A processor as set forth in claim 1 , wherein, in the display control file, the display control information is described separately in a file control division and an HTML division.
3. A processor as set forth in claim 1 , wherein the interpreter reads the display control information for each line and executes an analyzing process.
4. A processor as set forth in claim 2 , wherein the interpreter embeds, based on the description of the HTML division, dynamic information related to the display of the Web page in HTML output and outputs the HTML output.
