Step 2: Creating a footer file

If you are updating an existing KU web site, you may already have a footer file. You can continue to use your old footer, just adjust the "myfooter" setting to point to the location of your file.

To create a new footer file, copy this text into a new, blank file and then customize the footer content with contact information for your department or unit.

<div id="footercontact" class="span-10">
    <a href="http://www.ku.edu/contact/"><strong>Contact Us</strong></a><br />
        <address>
        The University of Kansas<br />
        Lawrence, Kansas 66045<br />
        (785) 864-2700
    </address>
</div>

<div  id="footerjayhawk" class="span-4">
    <a href="#top">
    <img src="<!--#echo var="http" -->://webmedia.ku.edu/images/template2009/uparrow.gif" border="0"
         alt="Go to the top of the page" /> top</a>
</div>

<div  id="footertagline" class="span-10 last">
    <h5>A great place to be</h5>
    <h4>A Champion</h4>
</div>  

Save the file as "myfooter.shtml" in the "myssi" directory.
