  • Patent number: 11093572
    Abstract: Disclosed are various embodiments for hierarchical modeling of network sites. A page model from a hierarchy of page models is provided in at least one computing device. The page model includes a plurality of features. Each one of the features is assigned to a respective network page region. The features include at least one original feature and at least one inheritable feature from a parent page model. A network page is generated in the at least one computing device corresponding to the page model. Each one of the features of the page model is encoded for rendering within the respective network page region.

  • Patent number: 9313187
    Abstract: Disclosed are various embodiments for network site customization using proxy server applications. A first request is obtained from an administrator of a network site to configure a proxy server application to obtain one or more network pages associated with a first portion of the network site from a first application executed in one or more computing devices. The proxy server application is configured in accordance with the first request. A second request is obtained from the administrator to reconfigure the proxy server application to obtain the one or more network pages from a second application executed in one or more computing devices. The network site includes one of several network sites hosted at least in part through the second application. The proxy server application is reconfigured in accordance with the second request.

The page model includes a plurality of features. Each one of the features is assigned to a respective network page region. The features include at least one original feature and at least one inheritable feature from a parent page model that is determined not to conflict with the at least one original feature. The features exclude at least one inheritable feature from the page model that is determined to conflict with the at least one original feature. A network page is generated in the at least one computing device corresponding to the page model. Each one of the features of the page model is encoded for rendering within the respective network page region.

  • Patent number: 9158743
    Abstract: Disclosed are various embodiments for designing a network site. A grid layout component is provided in conjunction with a network page. The network page has at least one text element and at least one image element. The grid layout component has a plurality of cell configurations. Each cell configuration includes at least one text cell and at least one image cell. An indication is received from a user, indicating that one of the cell configurations is to be an initial cell configuration. In response to the user indication, the at least one text element and the at least one image element are displayed in a grid having the initial cell configuration. Layout code is generated which renders the grid, including the at least one text element and the at least one image element, within the network page for display by the browser.

  • Patent number: 8892754
    Abstract: Disclosed are various embodiments for executing untrusted content in a trusted network through the use of an external proxy server application. An identification of a resource specified by a user is obtained in one or more computing devices. The user is associated with one of a plurality of network sites hosted by the one or more computing devices. The one or more computing devices are within a trusted network that is separated from an untrusted network by a firewall. The resource is obtained from an external proxy server application executed in the untrusted network. One or more network pages are generated for the one of the network sites based at least in part on the resource.
