footerfile = "filename" default: none The footerfile command is used to insert native Html code directly into the Html file(s) generated by Palview. The footerfile must be a simple text file that contains Html code and the file should be located in the same folder as the PGN file. The entire contents of this file will be read and inserted at the bottom of each Html page Palview creates. This allows webmasters to create a banner at the bottom of their pages. The footerfile contents is inserted immediately after the last game in the Html file or after the pgnlink if this feature is enabled. A simple example of a footerfile is :
    <A HREF='chessclub.com'><IMG SRC='home.gif'>ChessClub Home Page</A>
This command can be extremely useful when preparing pages for Live game coverage using Eric Bentzen's excellent Palive program. You can use the footerfile option to insert a site banner below all the live broadcast games that will maintain the look and feel of your own website. Yet one more good use that can be made with the footerfile command is in setting up a Game of the Day page for your chess site. By using the footerfile and headerfile commands, you can effectively copy the top and bottom of your Html file and then get Palview to insert the top and bottom around each day's new game. This will allow you to rebuild the page each day without having to edit the Html file that Palview generates for each new game.
