Claim:
1. A computer implemented method comprising: receiving a user request via a web browser interface; initiating a retrieval of a web page in response to the user request; initiating an update of the web page to a screen having a display area; detecting a user selection of a user-defined subset of the display area, wherein the user-defined subset of the display area corresponds to a subset of the web page and the update of the web page includes an update of the subset of the web page, and wherein the user selection corresponds to a touch screen action; preventing at least the subset of the web page from being updated to the screen in response to the user selection while retrieval of the web page continues; tracking a real-time state of a web page portion outside the subset of the web page; detecting a user interaction with respect to the user-defined subset of the display area to enter information requested by the user-defined subset of the display area while the subset of the web page is prevented from being updated to the screen, wherein the information requested includes a user identifier and a password; generating a response based on the user interaction; detecting a user de-selection of the user-defined subset of the display area; resuming the update of the subset of the web page to the screen in response to the user de-selection; and synchronizing the update of the subset of the web page with the real-time state.
