Branding External Urls
Notice that several of the parameters use Url templates. For example, frevvo.help.url references a help file named designer.xsl that is part of frevvo.war and is located in the directory <frevvo-home>\WEB-INF\xsl\main\help after the war file has been unzipped . You may wish to bundle up a replacement help file and store your replacement file in that same directory. In that case you will keep the templates ${context.path}${servlet.path}/static that are part of the default path and append your own help file name. It can be an html file, myAppHelp.html. Or if your help is an external file you can replace the entire default value ${context.path}${servlet.path}/static/help/designer with a Url such has http://mycompany/myapp/help.html. Refer to Installation Tasks for the steps to repackage frevvo.war after parameters in designer.xsl have been editied.

The look & feel of the Live Forms application is controlled via css. frevvo.css.url gives you the ability to add your own style sheet if you need to customize the look & feel of the page itself such as the background colors and sizes of the items on the pages. You can use a tool such as firebug to learn how the page is styled with css and thus how to override the default styling.

Rezip all the files in the c:\tmp\frevvo-war directory, even the ones you did not edit — if you change directories or zip them differently, Live Forms may not load correctly:
This is the correct structure for the frevvo.war zipfile.
Make sure you create the zipfile with the directory structure as shown in the image above. It is an easy mistake to include the containing directory in the zipfile. If you do this, Live Forms may not load correctly. Zip will often give your zipfile a .zip extension. Make sure you change this to a .war extension.
- Copy the updated frevvo.war file to <frevvo-home>tomcat\webapps.
Restart your server.
