Object Oriented Publishing

"Think of your Web site not as a collection of pages, but rather as a bunch of chunks of content. These chunks (or "objects" in the lingo of computer programming), when kept as pure content separate from how they are presented, can be reused in countless ways and updated easily. "

Building a Better Webmonkey

"After finishing the basic design, we built templates that would pair a story's metadata (headline, byline, etc.) with the actual content, and then merge it with the presentation, all at serving time, rather than in the production phase. This means everything is assembled when you hit a Webmonkey page, allowing us to update and tweak the design of everything as much as we want - even after we've published - by simply editing a single template file. The template system was built using the eXtended Server Side Include (XSSI) module on the Apache server. (For a more detailed look at how XSSI works, check out Nadav's column on the subject.)"

"Using Macromedia's new Dreamweaver authoring tool, we built working models of the dynamic HTML designs we were envisioning without having to write lines and lines of JavaScript over and over again."
