The HTML header is intended for advanced users who require greater flexibility in designing and defining the functionality of a task beyond standard options and who have sufficient knowledge of HTML.
Examodo displays each task as a separate HTML webpage (embedded within the Examodo application using the <iframe> element). The HTML webpage consists of an HTML header and an HTML body. All other content blocks describe the HTML body. The HTML header is automatically generated by Examodo, incorporating the general design framework and auxiliary functions required for interactions. If the task creator needs to add something to the HTML header generated by Examodo, they must create an HTML header content block and define the additional content there.
Typically, the HTML header defines the styles used on the webpage, loads CSS or JavaScript files, and/or programs JavaScript functions. The Examodo-generated part of the header includes support for using the jQuery library.
The placement of the HTML header content block relative to other content blocks is irrelevant, as HTML header content blocks are always applied before other blocks. If there are multiple HTML header content blocks in a task, their content is inserted into the webpage header in the same order as they appear in the task.
