CONFIGURING SEARCH RESULTS USING A LAYOUT EDITOR

A request is received from a requestor over a computer network and compared to a plurality of triggers associated with a plurality of layout configurations. One of the layout configurations is then selected based on the comparison. Next, components are identified for the selected layout configuration. A markup language response (e.g., HTML) is created that includes a markup language version of each of the identified components. The markup language version for at least one of the identified components is based upon a query answer that corresponds to the request. The markup language response is returned to the requestor over the computer network where it can be viewed using a browser running on the requestor's computer.
