Abstract

A method for providing a data binding abstraction. The method includes serving an interactive document via a digital data communications network using a server. The method includes generating, with intelligence in the document, a data binding request to resolve a data value placeholder that has no static data location or source reference. With a data binding web service, the method includes generating a data dictionary request that includes a placeholder identifier. The method includes using the data binding web service to process a data dictionary response which includes placeholder content for the placeholder to determine a source of the data value. The method includes the data binding web service accessing the determined data source to obtain the data value and providing the interactive document with a response including the placeholder identifier and the resolved placeholder data value. The interactive document then replaces the placeholders with the returned data value.
