# Header and Footer Properties

When you select the "Content" node under the Header or Footer node in the Portal Designer's Document Structure window, the following properties appear in the Property Editor window:

Content URI | Read-only. The JSP file referenced in a shell that is used to display content in the desktop header or footer. This value is read from the <netuix:jspContent> "contentUri" attribute in the .shell file <header> or <footer> tag. If you select a different shell for the desktop, you may see a different value here.
Error Page URI | Read-only. The file referenced in a shell that is used to display an error message in the desktop header or footer if the contentUri JSP encounters errors. This value is read from the <netuix:jspContent> "errorUri" attribute in the .shell file <header> or <footer> tag. If you select a different shell for the desktop, you may see a different value here.
Backing File | Read-only. The class referenced in a shell that is used for preprocessing prior to rendering a shell's header or footer JSP. This value is read from the <netuix:jspContent> "backingFile" attribute in the .shell file <header> or <footer> tag. If you select a different shell for the desktop, you may see a different value here.
