`
`An e commerce outsourcing process providing a
`host website in communication with a visitor
`computer with context sensitive, transparent e
`commerce support pages, comprising the steps
`of:
`
`Briefly, according to the invention a method for designing a Web page,
`to be hosted on a Web page server, comprises: providing an object-
`oriented, template-driven interface for a customer to utilize in the design
`of the Web page. This allows the customer, through the use of the
`interface, to design the Web page. The method also comprises the step
`of publishing the Web page at a destination of the customer's choosing.
`
`Briefly, in accordance with another aspect of the invention, a method for
`designing a Web page for use in a distributed electronic commerce
`system is provided. The commerce system comprises a Web page server
`and a second server which are electrically coupled to each other, and the
`Web page server hosts the Web page. The method comprises: creating a
`link to the second server; designing the Web page such that the link can
`be embedded into the Web page; and embedding the link into the Web
`page.
`
`Moore ’575, 3:23-39.
`The Development Tool is object-oriented and template-driven, and it
`enables its customer, which is the merchant, to design a web site in only
`a few minutes and does not require any special Internet knowledge from
`the merchant. The Development Tool breaks the design process down
`into four steps. The first is to select a Web site category. The second is
`to collect optional page header and footer information. The third is to
`choose the defaults for the background color or image and for the page
`style. The fourth is to fill in the content of each page.
`
`8(a)
`
`capturing a look and feel description associated
`with a host website;
`
`The first step is to select a category. The category is selected from a list
`of ten industries such as automotive, dining, and education. Referring to
`FIG. 6, there is shown a screen 600 containing a list of possible
`industries to choose from in the Development Tool. Alternate
`embodiments could employ different industries and a different number
`of choices. The list 600 also illustrates the simplicity of the merchant
`interface. The selected category is used by the Development Tool to
`preselect the image libraries and page style libraries that will be used in
`the fourth step. The Development Tool thus simplifies for the merchant
`the processes of finding appropriate clip art and page styles.
`
`The second step is to create the default header and footer. The page
`header and footer are typically used for the company name and logo. An
`email address and a link URL are also commonly included. As with
`many of the features of the Development Tool, the field size may be
`adjusted and images may be loaded. In this case, the height of the
`header, for example, may need to be increased in order to accommodate
`a particular company logo. Referring to FIG. 7, there is shown a screen
`700 in which the merchant is prompted to enter the information for the
`header and the footer. The screen 700 further illustrates the simplicity of
`the merchant interface.
`
`The third step is to select the default background, which may be a color
`or an image, and page style. The Development Tool simplifies the
`process of choosing by offering grids of selections. The color grid, or
`pallet, contains 16 different colors. This color pallet can be used or the
`merchant can define his own. Similarly, a grid of clip art images is
`available for the merchant to choose from for background images. These
`default conditions for each page constitute a template, and begin to
`illustrate the template-driven nature of the Development Tool. The
`default background may be separately changed by the merchant for any
`

`
`particular page.
`
`Page styles allocate certain portions of each page to text, images,
`multimedia, etc. The style thus provides a template for all of the
`different content-related objects ("style components") that will appear on
`a page. Although the position and sizes of the style components are
`defined by the style, they can be changed by the merchant for any page.
`Referring to FIG. 8, there is shown a screen 800 which prompts the
`merchant to select a background and a style for the page. Page styles are
`further elaborated in FIG. 9, and FIG. 10 shows one style or template in
`isolation.
`
`The fourth step is to fill in the content for each of the style components.
`As shown, for example, in FIG. 10, each of the style components must
`be filled in. To do this, the merchant clicks on the style component and
`the Development Tool presents a "dialog" box which steps the merchant
`through the choices necessary to fill in the style component. FIGS. 11-13
`show dialog boxes for image, text, and multimedia style components,
`respectively. For images, the merchant is presented with a selection, but
`may use other images as well. It is common for a merchant to scan logos
`and images that the merchant wants to use on his Web site. Any style
`component can also have a URL attached to it, and the dialog box allows
`the merchant to select this option.
`
`Each page created by the merchant can, as mentioned earlier, be
`modified. Style components can be added, deleted, moved, resized, etc.
`Another feature of the Development Tool is that it presents the page just
`as a Web customer will see it. This feature, called WYSIWYG for "what
`you see is what you get" allows the merchant to see, without publishing
`and browsing, what the published page will look like when it is
`published. Additionally, the Development Tool also provides a
`previewing option which uploads all of the pages and allows the
`merchant to view the entire Web site with a Web browser.
`

`
`providing the host website with a link for
`inclusion within a page on the host website for

`provided link correlates the host website with a

`When the pages are all created, the Development Tool allows the
`merchant to upload or publish the Web pages to a site specified by the
`merchant.

`The Web storefront 106 acts as the virtual store for the customer 114,
`and contains whatever information the merchant has built into the Web-
`site (e.g. pictures, prices, search engines, etc.). There is provided,
`according to the present invention, a Development Tool for designing
`the Web storefront 106. This tool greatly simplifies the task of creating
`the Web storefront initially and of modifying it and updating it. The
`Tool also ensures that the operation with the Transaction Server 202 is
`seamless for the customer 114.
`
`The Tool derives much of its utility from the fact that it contains a series
`of templates, tailored to different industries, for creating pages. The
`fields on these templates can be filled with text, or with images from clip
`art (also included with the tool) or can be tailored to suit a specific
`merchant's needs. The task is greatly simplified by the inclusion of a
`prompting mode in which the tool will actually step a user through the
`process. As an additional tailoring feature, the tool can be adapted to
`whatever "look and feel" the customer may desire. The customer may

`the customer finds a product that the customer would like to buy, he
`selects that product 504. The Store Server then jumps to the Store
`Builder Server by using a Uniform Resource Locator ("URL") 506. The
`URL, called a price URL, contains all of the relevant information on the
`product, and all the information necessary to build a "Buy Page." The
`relevant product information includes a picture of the product, the

`
`Distributed electronic commerce is conducted over a network by
`substantially separating transaction functionality from merchant content.
`Electronic commerce transaction functionality is provided by a
`commerce server having a commerce database. The commerce server
`stores merchant and purchaser profile data and merchant content
`summaries on the commerce database. The purchaser browses and
`searches for product and merchant information using the commerce
`server, and is provided with more detailed information stored at a
`separate merchant content server system. The purchaser selects products
`to purchase, and a purchase order is sent to the commerce server. The
`commerce server initiates the settlement of accounts between the
`merchant and purchaser, and initiates order fulfillment for the selected
`product. The separation of transaction functionality and merchant
`content onto separate servers under the control of a commerce service
`provider and a merchant, respectively, provides a more efficient and
`effective way of carrying out electronic commerce over a network.
`
`Gregory ’567, Abstract.
`
`A purchaser requests the commerce server to send shopping information.
`The purchaser browses or searches for products on the commerce server,
`and data regarding products and merchants is retrieved from the
`commerce database. At the purchaser's request for more information on
`a product or merchant, the commerce server refers the purchaser to an
`appropriate merchant content server, which contains much more detailed

`information about the product and merchant than is available from the
`commerce database.
`
`While browsing or searching the merchant content server, the purchaser
`may select one or more products for purchase. When the purchaser
`indicates he is ready to effectuate such a transaction, data concerning the
`selected product or products are sent to the commerce server. The data
`include information sufficient to identify the product, purchaser and
`selling merchant. The commerce server communicates with an external
`payment system to debit the purchaser's account and credit the
`merchant's account, effectuating the sale. The commerce server also
`generates a fulfillment message that ensures product delivery to the
`purchaser.

`“The present invention thus advantageously provides a convenient and efficient
`way for a purchaser to shop over a network through simple and easy to
`understand interfaces. An embodiment of such an interface is shown in FIG.
`11.” Gregory ’567, 7:54-57.
`
`A purchaser may choose to view product and merchant information by
`predetermined category, such as home appliances 113, outdoor gear 114,
`or electronics 115. Alternatively, the purchaser may wish to carry out a
`search of the commerce database. Such a search may be boolean, e.g.,
`HIKING AND (BOOTS OR SHOES). In another embodiment, the
`search is in a natural language format as is known in the art, e.g., I
`NEED HIKING BOOTS FOR BACKPACKING.
