How do I add the VeriSign Seal to my web page?

I’m a System Administrator who recently reconfigured the company website to use SSL. We went with a VeriSign certificate.

I’m able to get SSL working okay, but I’m stumped (I’m not a developer) on how to add the VeriSign Seal to the bottom of our website home page (FYI - VeriSign offers a “seal” that can be added to the website home page to let people know that the site is secured using their product).

Instruction 1 & 2, I’m able to understand, although I’m not sure how to format a page to make room for the seal:

1.) Open the destination page for the VeriSign Secured Seal in an HTML editor or Web authoring tool.

2.) Format the page to make room for the seal. If you are replacing a previous version of the seal, locate and remove the old code.

Step # 3 is where they have you use a “Create Script” button which created this script (I’ve modified it a bit so that it can’t be used by others):

<script

src=https://sealpr.verisign.com/getseal?host_name=dom1.mydomain.com&size=L&use_fl

ash=NO&use_transparent=NO&lang=fr>

<a href=“What is an SSL Certificate? – Verisign” target=“_blank”

style="color:#000000; text-decoration:none; font:bold 7px verdana,def-sans-serif;

letter-spacing:.5px; text-align:center; margin:0px; padding:0px;">ALL ABOUT SSL

CERTIFICATE

The final instruction is a bit over my System Admin head:

“Copy this script directly into the Web page code.”

Can someone tell me how to do this?

I have a Domino Developer client, and I know what *.NSF holds our website, but after that I’m a bit lost.

Thanks.

If you’re looking for an opportunity to expand into development, this is a good exercise so keep reading. If you need this done fast and right (ie if you screw up bad things will happen), I’d recommend you get the developers to handle the update. If the developers are gone, hire one locally!

If you want to hack and whack, you’ll need to open the db in Designer and start looking at the different elements to find where it is you want to add this code. It would typically exist on a form or a page, possibly a subform. It might live on the actual form/page/subform or be in one of the form events dedicated to js.

There’s a ton of help in Designer, the FAQs have web development resources, and if you get stuck and can provide us more detail on the db design, ask at the forum.

It’s possible to design a web site using Notes in about a zillion different ways so telling you exactly what to do is kinda hard.

Thanks - I’ll try your suggestion next month during scheduled server down time for maintenance.
