A browser-control script for controlling how refreshed data is rendered during a network data-session is provided. The browser control script comprises an instruction for establishing a second data-channel between a client and a data source, a data-communication function for transacting data over the second data-channel, an instruction for enabling selective data-rendering by the browser application, a selection function for selecting data elements to be refreshed and an instruction for predicting a new scroll position in a browser window. Once invoked, the browser-control script provides an automated control-routine for managing a data-refresh operation such that data re-rendering within the browser application only occurs when there are updated data elements ready for display, the re-rendering of the data specific to the updated data elements. |

DETAILED DESCRIPTION In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, a browser-control script for controlling how refreshed data is rendered during a network data-session is provided.
The browser control script comprises an instruction for establishing a second data-channel between a client and a data source; a data-communication function for transacting data over the second data-channel; an instruction for enabling selective data-rendering by the browser application; a selection function for selecting data elements to be refreshed and an instruction for predicting a new scroll position in a browser window.
Once invoked, the browser-control script provides an automated control-routine for managing a data-refresh operation such that data re-rendering within the browser application only occurs when there are updated data elements ready for display, the re-rendering of the data specific to the updated data elements.
In preferred applications, the control script is of the form of an embedded executable program embedded into a Web page.
Also, in preferred applications, the network utilized is the Internet network and the control script is a Java Script program.
In one embodiment, the data source is a network-connected Web server.
In another embodiment, there is more than one data source from whence data is compiled and aggregated by a single network-connected Web server.
In one aspect, the instruction for predicting a scroll position contains an action for shifting the scrolled position when an updated data element is re-rendered above a user's viewing position in the browser window.
In this aspect, the control-script obtains size information of updated data elements during transmission of the data elements from the server to the client.
In a variation of this aspect, the size information of updated data elements is obtained from client cache memory after receipt of the updated data elements but before rendering the elements.
In another aspect of the present invention, a method for conducting the data-refresh operation during an active data session conducted over a data network is provided
