   The layout of the map components is defined in the spatial/map.html file within the skin's directory. It is a simple tabular layout and the map components are abstracted into "widgets", blocks with a specific id, which can be reorganized within the table. For deeper customization you can modify the web map context document (spatial/context.xml) and the mapbuilder config file (spatial/config.xml).
