Abstract
The present invention is directed to a method and system to be performed by a WSRP consumer portal server for accessing a remote network resource addressed by a respective resource URL in a web portal infrastructure comprising at least a WSRP Consumer Portal connectable to a client Browser requesting the remote network resource, and a remote communication partner. A method for accessing remote network resources, a WSRP consumer portal includes: in response to an incoming client request for a web page, determining if remote portlets are comprised of said requested web page; for remote portlets sending a request for a respective portlet markup to a producer of said remote portlets; receiving a response to said request comprising a markup document including encoded representations of network URLs of a respective remote network resource; searching said response for producer encoded resource URLs of remote network resources, resulting in a set of found URLs; generating for each producer encoded resource URL a set of rewritten URLs, wherein each rewritten URL provides an access performable by said client to said remote resource; generating from said received markup document a new markup document comprising an executable code fragment, having the function to be executed by the client to select a specific rewritten URL out of said set of rewritten URLs; and sending a newly assembled web page comprising said new markup document for remote portlets and an unchanged markup document for non-remote portlets.
