Zusammenfassung:A METHOD AND SYSTEM PROVIDING A CLIENT (300) WITH USER INTERFACE INFORMATION ARE DESCRIBED. AN EVENT MECHANISM (210) WITHIN A CLIENT-SERVER ENVIRONMENT FOR KEEPING A CLIENT NOTIFIED OF USER INTERFACE EVENTS. THE EVENT MECHANISM (210) COMPRISES A REGISTRATION MECHANISM FOR ALLOWING THE CLIENT TO REGISTER TO RECEIVE INTERESTING USER INTERFACE INFORMATION. A USER INTERFACE AUTOMATION CLIENT (202) RECEIVES REGISTRATION INFORMATION FROM THE CLIENT AND CONVEYS THE INTERESTING USER INTERFACE INFORMATION TO THE CLIENT UPON RECEIPT. A USER INTERFACE AUTOMATION SERVER (204) RECEIVES REGISTRATION INFORMATION FROM THE USER INTERFACE AUTOMATION CLIENT (202) AND ADVISES A USER INTERFACE ENGINE (206) FOR REGISTRATION. THE USER INTERFACE AUTOMATION SERVER (204) ADDITIONALLY RECEIVES THE USER INTERFACE INFORMATION FROM THE USER INTERFACE ENGINE (206). THE USER INTERFACE AUTOMATION SERVER (204) INCLUDES A FILTERING DEVICE FOR FILTERING OUT INFORMATION THAT IS UNINTERESTING TO THE CLIENT (300) AND A NOTIFICATION DEVICE FOR NOTIFYING THE USER INTERFACE AUTOMATION CLIENT (202) OF INFORMATION THAT IS INTERESTING TO THE CLIENT.
