Abstract
A method, a server and a client for enabling time limited modifications of XML nodes in XML documents, where a modified document can be restored to its original content upon expiry of an expire time, which has been specified for the modification, are provided. A request for a time limited modification of an XML node, including an expire time, is transmitted from a client to a server. At the server, a timer is either started, in case no timer is pending for the XML node, or re-set, in case a timer is already pending for the XML node. The present version of the XML node is stored, before it is modified, according to modification data provided in the request. Upon timer timeout the requested modification will no longer be valid, and therefore the XML node is restored to its stored version of the XML node.
