Abstract:
1. A method of delivering hybrid content to a user of a computer system, comprising: (a) instantiating a first functional module on the computer system; (b) commanding instantiation of a second functional module remote from the first functional module; (c) receiving dynamic content from the second functional module; (d) accessing a repository of static content; (e) delivering hybrid content on the basis of the static content in the repository and the dynamic content received from the second functional module, delivering being achieved via a user interface defining at least one visual element defined by a set of parameters; and (f) executing instructions of a computer-readable storage medium on the computer system, the first functional module and the repository being located on the computer-readable storage medium; whereby operation of the computer system is governed by an operating system and whereby the first functional module interacts with the operating system to restrict manipulation of the parameters of the visual element by a user of the computer system.
