How to Install True BusinessID SSL

by Kent Peterson Web security adviser

To install the True BusinessID SSL, simply add the following lines to each Web page on which you want the True Site Seal to appear:

<!-- GeoTrust True Site [tm] Smart Icon tag. Do not edit. -->
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript" TYPE="text/javascript"
SRC="//smarticon.geotrust.com/si.js"></SCRIPT>
<!-- end GeoTrust Smart Icon tag -->

These instructions will retrieve your True Site registration data from the True Site registry server and cause the True Site Seal to be displayed on your web page. Remember, the web page on which you place this True Site Seal must use exactly the same domain that is in your True Site enrollment application. For instance, if the enrollment is for www.example.com, then the True Site registration is for that site, and does not include other fully qualified domains like www2.example.com.

Important note: Use of the True Site Seal is subject to the terms and conditions of the True Site Subscriber Agreement. You must agree to those terms and conditions if you use the True Site Seal. You are indicating your acceptance of that agreement by installing the True Site Seal on your web site.

FrontPage installation: In order to properly install your True Site Seal on your web site using FrontPage you will need to follow one of the two procedures below. Otherwise FrontPage will change the HTML code for the seal, causing the icon to function improperly.

Method 1

One way to add the Tag with Frontpage 2000 is as follows:
1. Open the html page (*.htm, *.html, *.asp, or whatever) and put the cursor where you want the icon to appear
2. In the main menu, choose Insert->Advanced->HTML... to open up the HTML Markup dialog
3. Paste the second line (the non-comment line) of the Tag into the dialog as shown below in Figure 1 and click OK.
4. Save the file (in the menu File->Save, or press CTRL-S)
<!-- webbot bot="HTMLMarkup" startspan -->
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript" TYPE="text/javascript"
SRC="//smarticon.geotrust.com/si.js"></SCRIPT>
<!-- webbot bot="HTMLMarkup" endspan -->
The opening and closing webbot comments seem to prevent "file:" from being added when the page is opened and then saved in Frontpage.

Method 2

The other way to essentially accomplish the same thing is to open the HTML source file in a text editor such as Notepad and add the webbot comment lines manually. Before the Tag, add:
<!-- webbot bot="HTMLMarkup" startspan -->
And after the Tag, add:
<!-- webbot bot="HTMLMarkup" endspan -->
So that your HTML source looks like:
<!-- webbot bot="HTMLMarkup" startspan -->
<!-- GeoTrust True Site [tm] Smart Icon tag. Do not edit. -->
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript" TYPE="text/javascript"
SRC="//smarticon.geotrust.com/si.js"></SCRIPT>
<!-- end GeoTrust Smart Icon tag -->
<!-- webbot bot="HTMLMarkup" endspan -->
