Abstract
A method and apparatus for inferring navigational hierarchy for a web site from an existing file hierarchy having one or more HTML files. The method includes inferring a navigational hierarchy for a web site from physical relationships between the HTML files stored in the existing file hierarchy. The method may include ordering the HTML files according to the navigational hierarchy for manipulation by a web site construction tool and displaying the ordered HTML files in a tree structure or an organizational chart structure indicative of the navigational hierarchy for the web site. The existing file hierarchy may include a directory and one or more sub-directories each including one or more HTML files. The method may include creating an initial level in the navigational hierarchy for all HTML files in the directory. Each file in the initial level includes a link to a next sequential file physically located in the file hierarchy that is assigned to the initial level of the navigational hierarchy. The method may include creating a second level in the navigational hierarchy for HTML files in a sub-directory of the directory.
