  • Publication number: 20100318894
    Abstract: A word processor application presents a word processor user interface containing a word processor document. The word processor application generates the word processor document by rendering a web page file. The word processor document includes editable elements and non-editable elements. The web page file indicates which elements of the web page file are rendered as editable elements and which elements of the web pages are rendered as non-editable elements. In some instances, the non-editable elements are common to each web page in a web site. The user edits the content of the editable elements. When the user saves the word processor document, the client computing system sends a page modification request to a server computing system. In response, the server computing system modifies the web page file such that corresponding editable elements of the web page file specify the content of the editable elements in the word processor document.

  • Publication number: 20100318889
    Abstract: A host computing system automatically inserts data submitted from web forms into documents. The host computing system stores a document file comprising data that represents a document. The document comprises at least one document element. The host computing system receives a block of web form data. The block of web form data comprises a value assigned to a web form element in a web form. In response to receiving the block of web form data, the host computing system automatically updates the document element to specify the value when the document file comprises element mapping metadata that maps the document element to the web form element.
