Abstract: This invention relates to methods and systems of editing a web site. In one embodiment, a web site is organized into multiple sub-sites, with each sub-site having one or more web pages. For each sub-site, a label definition file, an image definition file, and a task definition file are used to respectively store the definitions of the labels, images, and tasks of the web pages of the sub-site. The label definition file and the image definition file are advantageously XML files. A label, image, or task that is shared by multiple web pages of a sub-site can be edited from one web page of the sub-site. When the other web pages are requested for display, they are generated to reflect the change of the shared label, image, or task.

Abstract: A system and method are described that allow a customer to shop on-line for service businesses that will repair a vehicle. The system provides an input screen that captures information relating to the vehicle needing service and transmits that data to service businesses. The service businesses respond to the transmitted data by forwarding an estimate for the repair work to the system. A custom Internet page that displays all of the estimates is developed by the system and a link to that page is emailed to the customer.
