Abstract
The disclosed method, system and computer program product converts static, fixed-count multi-row web objects in web pages, such as HTML tables and lists, to dynamic, variable-count multi-row web objects by first copying one of the row formats from the original static web object into a plurality of string variables which are preferably organized as an array, then inserting new content information into each row format definition contained within each string variable, and finally creating a new multi-row web object based upon the final contents of the string variables. This process of creating a variable row-count web object using an array of string variables supports dynamic web page content generation needs of many web server systems.
