Styling the Simple Item View

DSpace offers following CSS classes in the HTML output to style metadata labels and values in the simple item view, :

• metadataFieldLabel
• metadataFieldValue

Each label and value gets enhanced by a CSS class identifying the metadata field by its schema, element and qualifier. The pattern for this classes is: schema_element_qualifier. Examples:

• Select the CSS classes metadataFieldValue and dc_title to style the title element.
• Select the CSS classes metadataFieldValue and dc_description_abstract  to style the abstract element

/* Make title bold */
.metadataFieldValue.dc_title { 
    font-weight: bold;
}

/* Make abstract italic and enforce the display of its line breaks */
.metadataFieldValue.dc_description_abstract {
    white-space: pre-line;
    font-style: italic;
}
