changing HTML output layout

How can I change the CL&F of my javadoc output to something else? My team want to put their logo and change the layout of the default output. Can it be done?

I don't know what CL&F is. You can add your logo to -header,

-footer or -bottom. You can change the layout by modifying

the standard doclet source code, available at:

http://java.sun.com/j2se/javadoc/faq/index.html#sourcecode

There are no javadoc options for changing the layout

very much.

Yes. You will have to take a look at the doclet API. http://java.sun.com/products/jdk/1.2/docs/tooldocs/javadoc/overview.htmlFor simple changes like changing fonts and colour, you could try changing the stylesheet.HTH,Manuel Amago.

I would recommend just putting an "<img>" tag in the -header argument. That's certainly the easiest way to do it.

Actually, if you download the source for java it includes the source for javadocs. There you can get the code for the standard doclet. From that, change all the package statements to your own and you can make a custom built JavaDoc. That is what I do to add cutomizations. With that you can have any layout you want, including custom proprietary tags.

One note about a bug in the process above.the doclets.properties file from doclets.resources needs to be copied into javadocs.resources. This is just a bug in the 1.3.1 download source file.

If you're willing to move up to 1.4.0, it has new -tag and -taglet

options that support custom tags.

Also, please be advised of our proposed changes to the standard

doclet code in another topic in this forum:
