Abstract
A Web view page is provided by a browser module operating with a dialog box of an application program. The browser module displays a Web view page in a browser window within the dialog box of the application program, enabling a user to perform browser functions and application program functions by selecting an element in the Web view page. The browser module detects whether a selected element can be processed by the browser module alone, and if not, communicates the selected element to the dialog box of the application program for processing. A server that is capable of interacting with the Web view page implements the functions requested by the user.
