More Information
Summary:A device, system and method are provided for processing and displaying content received in a content feed. Dimensions of a page layout area available to display a articles are determined, and a page layout is generated with a first layout region whose size is based at least in part on the content of a first article, and a second layout region occupying a subdivision of the remaining area of the page layout area. The second layout region position and size is thus determined by the page layout area dimensions and size of the first layout region. A further layout region may be defined in the remaining area of the page layout area after the second layout region is defined, again based on the page layout area dimensions and the size of the second layout region. Articles are then laid out in a corresponding one of the layout regions for display.
