HOBBITWEB(5) File Formats Manual HOBBITWEB(5)
NAME
Xymon web page headers, footers and forms.
DESCRIPTION
The Xymon webpages are somewhat customizable, by modifying the header- and footer-templates found in the ~xymon/server/web/ directory.
There are usually two or more files for a webpage: A template_header file which is the header for this webpage, and a template_footer file
which is the footer. Webpages where entry forms are used have a template_form file which is the data-entry form.
With the exception of the bulletin files, the header files are inserted into the HTML code at the very beginning and the footer files are
inserted at the bottom.
The following templates are available:
bulletin
A bulletin_header and bulletin_footer is not shipped with Xymon, but if they exist then the content of these files will be inserted
in all HTML documents generated by Xymon. The "bulletin_header" contents will appear after the normal header for the webpage, and
the "bulletin_footer" will appear just before the normal footer for the webpage. These files can be used to post important informa-
tion about the Xymon system, e.g. to notify users of current operational or monitoring problems.
