CSS – Cascading Stylesheets

JavaScript

NOTE: For the purposes of this document, <?=$styleServer?> can be one of the following:

Development version:

Primary Production version:

If your site does not reference any of these, chances are it is either not considered a CSS-compliant site or is using a non-standard version of what appears visually to be Brand-compliant, i.e. a duplicated and modified version of common.css.

The following two <script> lines should be added to your <head> element if not already there. These .js files are required for common.js functions used across online properties, most specifically the Title Generator.

HTML for JavaScript:

<script type="text/javascript" src="<?=$styleServer?>/scripts/common.js"</script>

<script type="text/javascript" src="<?=$styleServer?>/scripts/flash.js"</script>

Sprint logo

CSS-compliant sites will receive the new Branded logo via CSS (black on yellow). Through stylesheet properties, the new logo is now a background image.

In addition to this, the logo in compliant sites currently is an inline <img> element. This image and its HTML will be retained and edited per directions below. This asset is to be replaced with the provided image asset (black on white). Editing ofHTML is documented below.

NOTE: there are several variations of the id=”brand” element. Below are just a few of the variations known.. Some are in a <p> element, others in a <div>.Many have missing or added attributes, i.e. alt=”value”. The constant istheid=”brand” selector. If your site’s logo does not use this selector name, refer to the Determining CSS-compliance document available at
