Introduction

This document describes how the Persona Data Model 2.0 can be used to support form filling capability in an active client. We will illustrate by walking through the following scenario rom a cold start (i.e. a clean install of a browser-integrated active client):

  1. Alice points her browser at staples.com and proceeds to try to buy a stapler. She eventually arrives at a checkout page
  2. Active client attempts to fill the form (this will fail as the active client has no data about Alice at this point)
  3. Alice fills in the form and submits it
  4. Active client builds persona structures from what it has observed
  5. Alice points her browser at bestbuy.com and proceeds to buy a new CD
  6. Active client attempts to assist Alice in filling the form from persona data
  7. Alice edits/corrects form elements and submits it
  8. Active client builds persona structures from what it has observed

Alice eventually ends up at this form:
