User Interfaces  Authoring Environments  Design Tools  WEB 

In this paper we present an environment for authoring Web sites through a model-based approach for user interface design. In particular, we focus on how it supports the access to remote databases and the dynamic generation of the Web pages presenting the corresponding query results. The environment is able to support development of applications implemented in many Web mark-up languages (XHTML, XHTML MP, X+V, VoiceXML) adapted to various interaction platforms (vocal, mobile, desktop,...).
