  Layout engine - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
A layout engine is typically used for web browsers, email clients, or other applications that require the displaying (and editing) of web contents.
For example Trident, the layout engine from Internet Explorer, is used by many applications on the Microsoft Windows platform to render HTML, as in the mini-browser in Winamp.
The Mozilla project's layout engine, Gecko, is commonly referred to only as a layout engine, as unlike with Trident or Opera's Presto, the main application (the Mozilla application suite) is less used than other browsers based on the engine such as Mozilla Firefox.

 Data-driven layout engine - Patent 6243102
This layout engine can, for example, be designed to receive commands from definition objects and provide instructions to the graphic subsystem which actually writes to the display.
After the layout engine 510 is finished executing its assigned drawing primitive(s), the window definition object 520 may perform any remaining tasks with respect to drawing the window.
Nonetheless, the layout engine 510 has control over where the window title is drawn even if it doesn't draw the title itself, because the window definition object 520 will query the layout engine 510 for a region that corresponds to the window title text and then draw the title in that region.
