It think it'll be easier to help you if you can tell us a little bit more about your project. As you may have seen, DSpace has two different options for the user interface: the older one is based on Java Server Pages and the newer one is based on XML. Their source codes live in the dspace-jspui and dspace-xmlui folders. You can customise either one; exactly what you need to do to customise them differs between them though. There is some information on configuring and customising them in Chapters 6 and 7 of the DSpace manual: http://www.dspace.org/1_6_2Documentation/ch06.html for jspui and http://www.dspace.org/1_6_2Documentation/ch07.html for xmlui. I found Tim Donohue's 2009 presentation "Making DSpace XMLUI your own" very helpful to understand how xmlui works and how to customise it: http://www.slideshare.net/tdonohue/making-dspace-xmlui-your-own There is also the new Discovery search that is based on Solr rather than Lucene: https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/DSPACE/DSpace+Discovery I hope this gives you some useful starting points. cheers, Andrea -- Andrea Schweer IRR Technical Specialist, ITS Information Systems The University of Waikato, Hamilton, New Zealand ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Beautiful is writing same markup.
