Abstract

The present invention provides a method of creating form on a Graphical User Interface (GUI) display comprising: creating a representation of the content of the form in a language that is independent of the technical specifications of the GUI display system; and invoking one or more renderers upon the representation, the renderers being configured to interface with the specific GUI display system and thereby generate a display that is described by the representation. One effect of this method is to abstract the representation that is created by a developer from the GUI system that will eventually display the form. The developer can therefore concentrate upon creation of the content and function of the from, rather than being driven by the capabilities of a particular GUI display system. It also creates code that is inherently system-independent. In typical embodiments of the invention, the representation is encoded within an XML document.
