Maintain Web Style

 

This form is used to maintain styles for the global style in Callista Connect and for individuals.

Web styles are used in the Maintain Self Serve Configuration form (SSFF1200), to set a global style for all Callista Connect web pages created in the Web Administrator. Styles can also be selected by the user in the PE-PREF application and override the global style.

Once a web style has been created, its attributes are defined by associating it with one or more web elements. For example: header and footer templates or inline style definitions. These are applied to the style in the Maintain Web Style Element form.

For more details on the creation of web pages refer to the specialist topic Understanding the Web Administrator.
