Abstract

A method and system for WYSIWYG editing of dynamic content on editable web pages. Generated content is content that is received periodically from a dynamic source. Generated content may be represented on an editable web page by instructions that describe how to generate the dynamic content. The generated content system presents generated elements in a non-editable manner while allowing modification of their instructions and also allowing complete editing functionality of any surrounding static content. Thus, the generated content system allows the user to include generated content in an editable web page in a way that clearly identifies the generated content during editing and still allows the user to modify the content.
