Page History

The DSpace digital repository supports two user interfaces: one based on JavaServer Pages (JSP) technologies and one based upon the Apache Cocoon framework (XMLUI). This chapter describes those parameters which are specific to the JPSUI interface.

The user will need to refer to the extensive WebUI/JSPUI configurations that are contained in JSP Web Interface Settings.

...

The 'layout' of each page, that is, the top and bottom banners and the navigation bar, are determined by the JSPs /layout/header-*.jsp and /layout/footer-*.jsp. You can provide modified versions of these (in [jsp.custom-dir]/dspace/modules/jspui/src/main/webapp/layout), or define more styles and apply them to pages by using the "style" attribute of the dspace:layout tag.

1. Rebuild the DSpace installation package by running the following command from your [dspace-source]/dspace/ directory:
