Abstract:
1. A computer implemented method of servicing requests, comprising the steps of: receiving, at a portal bridge and from a first network resource, a first request for access to a requested resource; forwarding from said portal bridge a second request to a second network resource in response at least in part to receiving said first request; receiving, at said portal bridge, a response to said second request, wherein said response comprises a first version of a link to said requested resource; processing said response at said portal bridge, wherein processing said response comprises modifying said link to said requested resource from a first version to a second version, wherein the first version of said link directs a subsequent request directly to said requested resource, and wherein said second version of said link directs a subsequent request to said portal bridge, so that a third request is forwarded to said portal bridge when said link is triggered; and forwarding said response, including said second version of said link, to said first network resource, responsive to said first request for access; formatting a client-side response at the first network resource; and forwarding the client-side response to a client, so that the client side response can be displayed for a user.
