Abstract

A dynamic webpage processing method, including identifying a static component within a dynamic webpage, the static component comprising computer code defining at least a portion of a target webpage and configurable via first configuration data, rendering the static component as a static markup language equivalent, and returning the target webpage upon request through rendering a dynamic component within the dynamic webpage based on second configuration data is disclosed. Thus, static component(s) can be pre-rendered, leaving only the dynamic component(s) of the dynamic webpage for on-the-fly rendering when a target webpage request is made. This can greatly reduce dynamic webpage processing requirements, particularly in situations where the webpage configuration changes or evolves slowly.
