System and method for extended dynamic layout

Abstract:

A website building system includes a database, a displayer, an editor and a dynamic layout editor. The database stores pages and components of a website, where each component is either a master component associated with a master page or a regular component associated with a regular page. The master and regular components have associated dynamic layout rules which define the relationships between one website component and at least one other website component. Each component has at least a regular handle and a smart handle. The displayer displays a composite page of master and regular components. The editor enables a user to choose to edit the master components or the regular components. The dynamic layout editor provides a handle set where some smart handles can change the boundary between the selected components and the non-selected components.
