Abstract
A device and method for a website building system that has a component based version comparer to compare at least two versions of a website page which has components defined in a set of hierarchies. The components can be a visual component, a container and a non-visual site element. The device generates a difference tree representing the differences in the components between two versions of the website page using the version comparer to preprocess the components in a version of a website page to determine internal geometric and semantic relationships before comparing the components and the relationships between the two versions using semantic and geometrical analysis. The device also includes a version merger to create an integrated version of the two versions of the website page according to the difference tree.
