Definitions
- This invention relates to organisation of web pages and in particular to a method of webpage structuring.
- BACKGROUND Web pages are usually static structures that are not readily recreated without the assistance of a web programmer.
- a dynamic hierarchy system for web pages where the creation and location of a menu title in an interactive sitemap simultaneously creates and structures a hierarchy, the recordal of correct addressing of relative location of web pages and (additionally) the required supporting code to render the web pages in the correct fashion. This allows for authentication and correlated content addition.
- the system can use Flash technology
- the dynamic hierarchy system is for unified file management, menu organisation and navigation.
- the invention also provides a system of creating webpages by providing a block of operative code for use in webpage construction, in which a webpage has a predetermined active template of a plurality of blocks in which data of various forms can be selectively created and the active template providing an active visual placement of the blocks depending on the number or type or size of blocks selected and automatically format the selected blocks with the created data on a webpage and block of operative code instigates a set of functions for providing an operative programmed change to the webpage.
- the functions include one or more of the following: • Automatic allocation of filename • Automatic web address of page based on filename • Automatic primary menu item creation on top or side of web site • Automatic position in a hierarchy of web pages • Automatic presentation of blocks of defined data • Automatic finalisation of webpage • Automatic alteration of front end of website
- the system also provides a method of providing structuring web pages by use of a block of operative code in webpage hierarchy construction or management, where the visual placement of an menu item image, representing content including text and forms, relative to one or more other menu item images instigates a set of functions for providing an operative programmed change to the webpage structure.
- the functions include one or more of the following: • Breaking of linkages of one or more webpage menu items • Automatic relinking of all webpage menu items according to visual arrangement • Automatic rearrangement of menu items in site map • Automatic rearrangement of primary and secondary menu of web pages • Automatic finalisation of webpage hierarchy structure • Automatic alteration of front end of website
- the changes to the structure include menu tree as well as web page addressing, and web page indexing for file management.
- the multiple operations have been uniquely integrated into an improved combination with a seamless operation that provides an added bonus of allowing a non- programmer to undertake a number of program steps to arrive at the result that is required. That is the user who would usually define the required result of webpage hierarchy and request a programmer to provide the required structure can themselves define the result and automatically have the structure created as they require.
- the dynamic hierarchy system can allow drag and drop menu items from one menu position to another. It can further allow creation of new menu items and files in one seamless operation and delete menu items and files uniformly without resultant broken links in the menu tree hierarchy.
- the system still further can generate a unique filename for created or redirected files transparently to the user such that the user can automatically allow the system to define the file address without any required interaction.
- the invention further provides a method of creating a changeable hierarchy where the current hierarchy is presented in a visual manner by visually presented elements and, through a rearrangement of the visually presented elements of this hierarchy, a new hierarchy can be created with connections between files reconfigured in accordance with the visual rearrangement.
- the method provides an automatic recreation of the hierarchy and the related pages and presentations by having a block of code which is automatically instigated by the rearrangement of the present visual hierarchy.
- a preview button which sets off the following series of events: 1 - It will send the names of any new menu items created to the scripting language, which will create a new page on the filesystem, copied from a blank template PHP file. 2 - It will send the current state of the menu to the scripting language, which in turn will update the Database with the menu hierarchy. 3 - It will launch a browser window with the new menu hierarchy displayed.
- Figure 1 is a flow diagram of the action of the method of web page structuring in accordance with one embodiment of the invention
- Diagrams 1 to 12 are display page examples of steps undertaken in the method of web page structuring in accordance with one embodiment of the invention as detailed in Figure 1.
- EMBODIMENT OF THE INVENTION Referring to the flow diagram it shows a particular embodiment of the method of the invention. Details of the functional programming steps that make this method different including the following: a menu tree is displayed; by a single click on a menu item in the menu tree a webpage is selected and can have its name amended; by double clicking instead the page becomes available for editing; by the single click the page as shown by the menu item in the menu tree can be dragged over the visual display of the menu tree into a new position connectable to a new part of the tree .
- This can be by being a different final branch connected at a different position or can be in the middle of a trunk or branch so as to reconfigure the style of the menu tree. Therefore a break occurs in the menu tree and a single or dual reconnection occurs to ensure all menu items are reconnected into the newly configured tree. That is no webpage is left disconnected. Releasing of the click after the drag of the visual display menu item will begin the reconnection process.
- the reconfigured menu tree does not only provide a new menu but provides a change in the real page orientation and the display of page contents and other related content.
- the method of reconstruction is by having a coded package behind the operation step such that when the visual menu step is located at the desired location a series of programmed steps occur to reconfigure the menu tree as well as reconfigure the addresses of the web pages and reconfigure the navigation to the web pages such as index lists.
- the method also includes add on construction by having a coded package behind the operation step such that when the visual menu step is created at the desired location a series of programmed steps occur to reconfigure the menu tree as well as reconfigure the addresses of the web pages and reconfigure the navigation to the web pages such as index lists.
- the user has the ability to create all of this before the web page file is actually created. Once satisfied that the page is publishable the user simply hits 'submit' and the entire website is re-created for the next individual that views the front end. If unsatisfied that the placement of the web page is correct, the user can then 'drag and drop' the corresponding sitemap entry into another position. The entire website is then re-created for the next individual that views the front end.
- this method is different and inventive to known methods as no coding is required at any time, in fact coding impedes the productivity of the webpage creation.
- a number of menu items are shown organised in a vertical tree-like formation.
- This formation determines the menu structure of the web site.
- the menu items sitting in the left-most position of this formation make up the initial menu for the web site.
- the children of these menu items will make up the sub-menus when traversing the web site.
- a scrollbar is present to scroll the menu tree up and down accordingly.
- the system is not limit to just a scroll bar for this but other means can be used which provide the ability to focus in and out of hierarchical fragments.
- the menu offers in ease-of-use and this can be especially seen in the manipulation of the menu tree. If a menu item is clicked on and dragged with the mouse, it can be placed anywhere in the menu tree and all the other menu items will adjust accordingly. As the item is dragged the other menu items will make space to allow for easy placement. If the menu tree is larger than the available screen space, the dragged item can be moved above or below the menu space to allow for movement/re-location to other areas of the menu tree. When the mouse button is released the item is dropped into the closest available space.
- a 'Save' button allows a function to traverse the menu tree and collect all the information that has changed since the last save and update the database and rename any files that need changing. Also any new items added since the last save will be inserted into the database and a new page will be created from a set template.
- Flash The communication from Flash to the web server and to the database is achieved through the use of an open-source project called PHPObject. It allows Flash to create, within itself, an instance of a PHP class, where it has access to all of the classes variables and functions.
