  • Enhanced visual table editing
    Patent number: 9170991
    Abstract: A system and method for editing a table within a hypertext markup language (HTML) editor is described, the method comprising analyzing code representing the table to determine dimension parameters based on content of the table, storing the dimension parameters in a memory, receiving edit indications from a user, concurrently comparing the edit indications against the dimension parameters, wherein edit indications that exceed the dimension parameters are rejected, and updating each instance of the dimension parameters within the code with the edit indications.

  • Automatic component update and integration
    Patent number: 7890919
    Abstract: An application development environment is described that updates one or more component tools offered in the application development environment. The application development environment determines the address of a server site related to the application under edit. After accessing this server site, the application development environment searches for one or more components related to the application being edited. The application development environment downloads and compares the server site components with one or more local components associated with the application. If a difference is detected, and a user authorizes the update, the application development environment revises the local components with the downloaded components and updates the component tools to facilitate presentation of the new components to the developer.
