Help fpr some Website customization

I’d like to change some pieces for the design of the “website” application. The point is I could find a way to do this via “public” customization offered by the application (the parameters and templates explained in Bob’s book), and I cannot find the appropriate temple to “touch” in the many style-sheets included in the distribution. Following are some of the customizationa I217;d like to achieve:

 

1)       I’d like to be able to change the configuration of the webpage footer. For example,

a.       The “next” and “prev̶1; links appears in the far bottom line and I prefer to have them in the first line of the footer (and also be able to change the text and properties of these links).

b. &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; The “copyright̶1; sub-section of the footer gets an extra level (<span class="footcopy&quot;><span class="copyright">…; </span></span>) producing a spurious “extra line”; in that part of the footer (and producing the “next and “prev” links going deeper down to the page).

2) &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; I’d like to have the “navigation headerR21; not only in the “home” (root) page of the website, but on all those 220;normal&#8221; pages I’d like.

3) &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; I’d like to introduce an “up&#8221; navigation link either in the footer (together with “next” and “prev”) or in the “navigation headerR21;.

4) &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; I’d like to add some new behaviour to some block elements via “role”; attribute. For example, being able to define a “floating <sidebar>”; and defining the floating features of the sidebar via CSS.

5) &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; I’d like to change the style of some <title&gt; elements. In this case, an ease solution would be also to be able to assign a specific class̶1; attribute to <title&gt; and work out the result via CSS.

 

Sorry for pestering you, but any help would be appreciated.

 

Regards,

 

Pedro

I don't have any quick solutions, but for footer
customizations in general,
look closely at the template named
"webpage.footer" in website-common.xsl.
It outputs a table with 3 rows.

For ideas on implementing an "Up" link, see the
template named
"footer.navigation" in html/chunk-common.xsl.

That's all I can offer for now...
