I've been informed by the good folks at Innovative that documentation 
and example files are forthcoming, and that it's OK to pass along the 
following for those of you on R2009B who are wondering why your 
confirmation screens for renewing items and canceling holds/bookings 
might look a little icky.  My thanks to III for responding so quickly.

Here's the deal:

There are three new customizable forms and two new wwwoptions that 
can be used to customize the three confirmation screens.  The 
wwwoptions are ICON_CONFIRM_YES and ICON_CONFIRM_NO, and they can be 
used to override the standard Yes/No buttons that will be presented 
if these wwwoptions don't exist.  (Note that the wwwoptions are 
shared by the three forms.)

===================================
Confirmation page for holds:
- Form: screens/cancel_holds_confirm.html
- Tokens:
<!--{toplogo}-->
Standard toplogo

<!--{confirm_hold_msg}-->
Text customized by MSG_CONFIRM_CANCEL_HOLD in messsages.conf file

<!--{holdform}-->
The list of selected items including the Yes and No buttons.

<!--{botlogo}-->
Standard botlogo, but in Bob's experience, does not generate closing 
body and html tags, so be sure to add them.

===================================
Confirmation page for renewing checkouts:
- Form: screens/renew_checkouts_confirm.html
- Tokens:
<!--{toplogo}-->
Standard toplogo

<!--{confirm_renew_msg}-->
Text customized by MSG_CONFIRM_CANCEL_HOLD  in messsages.conf file

<!--{checkoutform}-->
The list of selected items including the Yes and No buttons.

<!--{botlogo}-->
Standard botlogo, but in Bob's experience, does not generate closing 
body and html tags, so be sure to add them.

===================================
Confirmation page for booking:
- Form: screens/cancel_bookings_confirm.html
- Tokens:
<!--{toplogo}-->
Standard toplogo

<!--{confirm_booking_msg}-->
Text customized by MSG_CONFIRM_CANCEL_HOLD  in messsages.conf file.

<!--{bookingform}-->
The list of selected items including the Yes and No buttons.

<!--{botlogo}-->
Standard botlogo, but in Bob's experience, does not generate closing 
body and html tags, so be sure to add them.


The following confirmation messages are customizable. You can 
override individual messages in  messages.conf, and vary by scope or 
language if needed by using files named as messages_s#_LANG.conf.
MSG_CONFIRM_RENEW
MSG_CONFIRM_CANCEL_HOLD
MSG_CONFIRM_BOOKING
