METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR EMBEDDING CONTEXT INFORMATION IN DOCUMENT

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a general smart tag module having a general recognizer and a general action handler. SOLUTION: The general module is provided for a platform with access to a repository that includes smart tag configuration information, recognizers and the action handlers for each host application and may be a shared datastore available to many platforms. The general module dynamically loads and unloads selected recognizers and action handlers from the repository at execution, handles the registrations with the application, implements smart tag interfaces, determines a context of the document, loads recognizers and action handlers from the repository based on the determined context, evaluates expressions and performs searches in the document for data that is stored in a data source.
