Suggested corrections for a code error are provided by a compiler or code editor, for example. Thus, there is much less ambiguity about how an error should be corrected. Preferably, a predetermined number of suggested corrections are presented to the user (e.g., up to three suggestions), and the user can choose a desired suggested correction. Corrections for a given error can be made, not only at the location of the error, but throughout the code document, or other files in the user's solution. Furthermore, by undoing one correction and trying another, the user can go through all of the suggested corrections to determine which suggestion would be most preferable.

Auto suggestion of coding error correction

A code segment and elements of information (e.g., meta information) associated with the code segment are encoded in an XML file. One or more encoded code segments are saved within a library of encoded code segments. An encoded code segment may be selected and inserted into a source code file. When the encoded code is inserted into the source code, associated elements required by the code segment are automatically included and the portions of the code segments that may require modification are identified. The code segments are managed and organized so that sharing of code segments is facilitated.

System and method for creating, managing and using code segments

The use of style sheets in an electronic publishing system is described. A style sheet is a collection of formatting information, such as font and tabs in a textual document. The style sheets described herein are applied to individual display regions (controls) on a page. Unlike previous systems, the display regions in this system do not contain any text at the time the style sheet is applied. Rather, the text, or other media such as graphics, is poured into the display region when the title is rendered on the customer's computer.
