I'm not exactly clear I undestand your situation here, but...
If the code was redone from scratch, and it creates a webpage with a
similar layout and functionality of some proprietary code,
you MIGHT be able to claim it is an independent work.
Sort of like coding up two completely functionally identical programs
but with completely different source code.
You'll probably want to avoid an identical copy of the layout of
the website it generates, though. I forget exactly how that sort of
thing qualifies for any sort of artistic protection...
