Description:
uPortal is a free, sharable portal under development by institutions of
higher-education. uPortal is an open-standard effort using Java, XML, JSP and J2EE. It is a collaborative development project
with the effort shared among several of the JA-SIG member institutions.
Virginia Tech, as a JA-SIG member institution, has created a theme for use within uPortal 2.x that complies to W3C recommended standards. The theme does not include the use
of tables or tranparent GIFs for page layout. This theme in turn would help to create the first freely availble portal that is standards compliant.
