Abstract

Techniques disclosed herein provide access to a markup document form. A user interface virtualization (UIV) agent identifies name fields and input fields in rows of the markup document form. The UIV agent maps each of the name fields to a respective one of the input fields to identify name-input pairs. The UIV agent generates user interface (UI) metadata having row metadata specifying the rows of the markup document and name-input pair metadata specifying the name-input pairs. The UIV agent sends the UI metadata to a mobile client device configured to render a form having UI elements native to the mobile client device based on the UI metadata.
