Modifying Headers and Footers

About this task

Many web sites use standard headers and footers on all of their pages to provide common information, such as copyright and contact information, or to provide standard links that make it easy to navigate to specific portions of a site. Watson™ Explorer Engine makes it easy to add this information to your applications in order to make them consistent with your web site's look and feel.

Adding custom HTML to your application is done using the Settings tab's Theme > Simple pane, as shown earlier in Figure 2.
