CONTENT DISPLAY
First Claim
1. A system for generating a content hierarchy for use in laying out content from a source for display, the system comprising:
- a content gatherer co-operable with a source for gathering content from the source into content sub-groups dependent on the content type of the content;
a design fragment populater for populating at least one design fragment using the gathered source content, the plurality of design fragments each comprising design parameters specifying how the source content can be laid out; and
a content hierarchy assembler for attaching the populated design fragment to a selected parent fragment permitted for the populated design fragment, the parent fragment containing design parameters specifying how each design fragment can be laid out for display.

Abstract
The present invention relates to a system 10 for generating a content hierarchy 12 for use in laying out content from a source 14 for display. The system comprises a content gatherer 16 co-operable with a source for gathering content from the source into content sub-groups dependent on the content type of the content; a design fragment populater 24 for populating at least one design fragment 19 using the gathered source content, the plurality of design fragments each comprising design parameters specifying how the source content can be laid out; and a content hierarchy assembler 32 for attaching the populated design fragment to a selected parent fragment 19 permitted for the populated design fragment, the parent fragment containing design parameters specifying how each design fragment can be laid out for display.

8. A method for generating a content hierarchy for use in laying out content from one or more sources for display, the method comprising:
-
gathering content from a source; populating at least one design fragment from a plurality of stored design fragments using the gathered source content, the plurality of design fragments each comprising design parameters specifying how the source content can be laid out; and assembling the content hierarchy by attaching the populated design fragment to a selected parent fragment permitted for the populated design fragment, the parent fragment containing design parameters specifying how each design fragment can be laid out for display. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15)
