Adding a Footer to Web Pages

You can configure the Web server to automatically insert an HTML-formatted file to the bottom of every Web page sent out by your Web server. For example, this file can contain HTML formatting instructions for adding a simple text message and logo image to your Web pages. For more information, see HTML Authoring and Server-Side Includes.

To add a footer to every Web page
  1. Create an HTML footer file and save it on your Web server’s hard disk.

    2. Note   The footer file should be not be a complete HTML document, rather, it should only contain HTML tags necessary for formatting the appearance and function of footer content. For example, a footer file that adds your organization's name to the bottom of every Web page should consist of text and the HTML tags necessary for formatting the text's font and color.

  2. In Internet Service Manager, select a Web site, directory, or file and open its property sheets.
  3. Click the Documents tab, then select the Enable Document Footer check box.
  4. In the text box, either type the full local path to the footer file, or use the Browse button to navigate to it.

Caution   Document footers can reduce Web server performance, especially if a Web page is frequently accessed by users.
