The Dataverse Network Project

Use these tips for creating or editing your dataverse layout branding:

• A light blue background in any form field indicates that HTML, JavaScript, and style tags are permitted. The html and body element types are not allowed.
• When you link to files, such as images or pages on a web server outside the Network, be sure to use the full URL. An example is http://www.mypage.com/images/image.jpg.
• If you recreate content from a website that uses frames to combine content on the sides, top, or bottom, then you must substitute the frames with table or div element types. You can open such an element in the banner field and close it in the footer field.
• Each time you click Save, your banner and footer automatically are validated for HTML and other code errors. If an error message is displayed, correct the error and then click Save again.
• You can use the banner or footer to house a link from your homepage to your personal website. Be sure to wait until you release your dataverse to the public before you add any links to another website. And, be sure to link back from your website to your homepage.
