A software module is presented that enables a user to efficiently switch between interacting with a content object in a first context and a second context. Information from the first context is used when switching to the second context and vice versa, thereby decreasing the overhead associated with switching contexts. In one embodiment, the content object is an HTML file, the first context is the file as it appears in a web browser, and the second context is the file in editable format. In one embodiment, when the web browser is directed to a 'context-switch URL,' a modified web server extracts information from the context-switch URL and switches the context from the first context to the second. In one embodiment, a person initiates a context-switch by pushing a button on the web browser. This causes a context-switch URL to be generated and directs the web browser to the context-switch URL.

Dual context interaction with a content object for facilitating content creation and software development

A document publishing system. Users create document templates using a first user interface. Users generate content files related to the templates. The templates and document files are combined to create documents. A second user interface has functionality defined by high-level users.

Simplified document creation

A document publishing system. Documents can be automatically linked. Links are automatically created within a first document to other documents, or to locations within the first document and then modified as necessary depending on a destination location to which the first document is moved.

Automatic linking of documents

A document publishing system. Documents can be automatically linked. Links are automatically created within a document to other documents, or to locations within the same document.

A system and method for modifying indirect addresses in a document. The indirect address is modified based on the type of indirect address, the context in which the document is viewed, and the user interface used to view the document.
