I haven't tried it yet, but a Global UI Script that modifies the header to your liking should do the trick.

Keep in mind that the marquee element is a non-standard element in HTML. You might want to build JavaScript similar to the news scroller instead or utilize jQuery animations that accomplish the same goal.

UPDATE: I just tried it and it works, but it is a bit tricky. I did this under the assumption that the "Rightmost" property is being used. It might be different if it were the My Company Banner field.

UI Script
Name: Change Banner
Active: true
Global: true
Script:



try { // Use try-catch so if the code fails somewhere else, it doesn't hose up JavaScript completely
  window.parent.$('nav_header_text').innerHTML = '<strong>My custom banner</strong>'; // You can inject whatever HTML you like
  // or do other magic to the window.parent.$('nav_header_text') object via PrototypeJS
} catch (e) {}

Caution, I've done something similar and it has broken in Berlin.

Seems to work fine in Berlin in my testing.

Matt,

Do you happen to remember what you did exactly and the issue that it caused? I'm always leery of applying UI Scripts like this, but wanted to demonstrate that it was technically possible.

I don't remember the issue I saw and the exact script used, but it worked fine on Aspen and on some version of Berlin (might have been a CA release) it wasn't working. Just always want to be careful when working with the DOM and not using a ServiceNow API.
