Custom Login Page

I'm currently attempting to create a custom login page which will display an alert that licensing has changed and to open a ticket if the user doesn't have credentials.

CSS styling aside, I copied the sample1 login page provided with the installation and modified it slightly using the UI Element Names provided by IBM (page 641 of http://public.dhe.ibm.com/software/data/cognos/documentation/docs/en/10.2.1/ug_cra.pdf)

Regardless of how I structure the various elements the text never appears.

Thoughts?

Below is the bulk of this new login page (I've excluded the in-page CSS). I did add some test text outside of the additional HTML elements to determine if Cognos disregards those or not. Formatting is flexible so long as the text displays.


<body>
<div id="loginBoxWithShadow">
<div id="loginBox">
<div id="loginBoxInner">
<table width="100%">
<tr>
<td colspan="2">
<div id="%CL_HEADER%"></div>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>
<div id="%CL_PROMPT_badCredentialsEntered_caption%" class="loginPromptCaption">Test content not within extra html elements.
<div style="font-size:70%;color:#336699;">
<span style="color:red; font-size:medium">Attention: Report licensing has changed</span>
<p>If you do not have personal login credentials for accessing reports please open a ticket. 
</p>
</div>
</div>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td colspan="2">
<div id="%CL_FOOTER%"></div>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</body>


Thank you in advance!
