Abstract
Embodiments are provided to create and manage data view modules for updating data on a web page, without having to reload the entire web page to view the updated data. In one embodiment, a static data view module for viewing web data is modified utilizing an asynchronous update function which provides asynchronous update behavior for the data view module. The asynchronous update function enables the data view module to automatically update data displayed in a data view independently of data displayed in other static data views which may be present in a web page and which may only be updated by reloading the entire web page. In another embodiment, application programming interfaces (APIs) may be provided in the modified data view module which, when exposed, facilitate the building of customized data views by providing asynchronous update behavior for customized data view modules in a web page.
