Common design for web pages through employment of master specifications
First Claim
1. A web page generation method comprising:
- defining a master specification specifying a common style, a common navigation arrangement, and common content placement for each resultant web page to be generated;
defining a first subordinate content specification specifying first content of a first resultant web page, referencing the master specification for style, navigation and content placement;
defining a second subordinate content specification specifying second content of a second resultant web page, referencing the master specification for style, navigation and content placement; and
generating said first and second resultant web pages with said first and second contents being placed and styled in accordance with said common placement and style specified by said master specification, and said first and second resultant web pages having said common navigation arrangement specified by said master specification.

Abstract
A master specification is provided to specify a common design for a number of resultant web pages to be generated. The common design includes common content placement, and at least one of a common style and a common navigation arrangement. The content of a first resultant web page is defined employing a first subordinate web page specification, including reference to the master specification for content placement, and at least one of style and navigation. The content of a second resultant web page is similarly defined. In turn, the first and second resultant web pages are generated with first and second contents being placed, styled and/or having the common navigation arrangement in accordance with the master specification.

16. An apparatus comprising:
-
storage medium having stored therein programming instructions, when executed, operate the apparatus to receive a master specification defining a common design for resultant web pages to be generated, specifying common content placement and at least one of a common style and a common navigation arrangement for each of said resultant web pages to be generated;
receive a first subordinate web page specification defining first content for a first resultant web page to be generated, specifying said first content for said first resultant web page to be generated, and referencing the master specification for content placement and at least one of style and navigation;
receive a second subordinate web page specification defining second content for a second resultant web page to be generated, specifying said second content for said second resultant web page to be generated, and referencing the master specification for content placement and at least one of style and navigation; and
generate said first and second resultant web pages with said first and second contents being placed, styled and/or having a navigation arrangement in accordance with said common placement and at least one of style and navigation arrangement specified by said master specification; and
a processor coupled to the storage medium to execute the programming instructions.

22. A web page generation method comprising:
-
receiving a master specification defining a design for one or more resultant web pages to be generated, specifying in a first control section at least one of style and navigation arrangement, and in a first content section first content placement for each of the one ore more resultant web pages to be generated;
receiving a first subordinate web page specification defining first content for a first resultant web page to be generated, referencing in a second control section the master specification for content placement and at least one of style and common navigation, and specifying in a second content section said first content; and
generating said first resultant web page, adopting said first control section and first content section of said first specification and merging said specified first content into said first content section, resulting with said first content being placed, styled and/or having a common navigation arrangement in accordance with said common placement and at least one of style and navigation arrangement specified by said master specification. - View Dependent Claims (23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33)
