Abstract

A method is disclosed for preparing an interactive user-interface specification. The method is for use with a computer system including a processor, a memory, a display device and an input device. The method begins with the step of providing a data structure representing a control tree. The control tree represents the interface screens, screen objects and link-associations of the interface. The method further includes the step of presenting a representation of an element of the control tree based on the data structure. A system is also disclosed for implementing the steps of the method.
