Digital Exhibits with OmekaS : HTML Options

This guide provides basic instruction on how to use OmekaS for the Marriott Library Digital Exhibits platform.

Using HTML Enhancements

There are many options to enhance your text in OmekaS by switching to the "<> Source" option in a HTML block and working in HTML. There are many resources available on the internet that can provide tutorials on scripts and how to achieve a desired outcome. The W3 Schools HTML Tutorial is a great resource to start with. 

Adding Columns

Adding columns of text to your page can be achieved with an HTML grid system. The Grid system uses a series of containers, rows, and columns to layout and align content. It's built with a flexbox and is fully responsive. 

Below is the HTML script to produce these columns:

 

 <div class="container">
  <div class="row">
    <div class="col">
      Column
    </div>
    <div class="col">
      Column
    </div>
    <div class="col">
      Column
    </div>
  </div>
</div>

Adding Buttons & More

Please see this page (and embedded below) with instructions on how to create buttons, expandable rows, images with text overlaid, and image cards using HTML.
