Abstract
Techniques are disclosed for managing page state and interaction between a client and server. One embodiment provides a server that is configured to serve webpages having code therein that is executable within the client browser. The code is invoked upon user input indicative of a content request and is configured to request the server to pass back a desired representation of the requested content based on a template specified in the HTTP Accept request-header. The template is independent of content storage location, thereby allowing the same resource at a given server storage location to be accessed and presented in numerous renditions. The server is configured to send back the requested content in a rendition that corresponds to the specified template. The client-based code can be further configured to place the returned content the appropriate page location. The HTTP Accept request-header may specify a media type and template combination.
