How to Modify the Header in the CA IdentityMinder User Console

You use the head.jsp file (located in <iam_im.ear>/user_console_war\app\imcss\component) to modify the header in the User Console. The header can contain images, links, title, colors, and fonts. The following illustration shows the <div id> markers in the head.jsp file, which generate the header for the idm skin:

To update the header, modify the code for the following entries in the head.jsp file:

• <div id="title">
• <div id="logo">
• <div id="statusbar">
• <div id="username">
• <div id="help-logout">

For example, to change the link users are directed to when they click on the logo image that appears in the header for the User Console, replace the URL in the following code with the URL for your company’s home page.

<div id="logo">
<a href="http://www.yourcompany.com/"><skin:img altKey="console.logo" titleKey="console.logo" src="logo.gif" width="93" height="33" border="0" /></a>
</div>

Note: After modifying the head.jsp file, be sure to recompile the .jsp files.
