  1. Layout and Navigation 6 February 2014

  2. Only one new piece

  3. Navigating to Different Pages • Other pages: href=“page.html” • Same as link and img • Anchor point on other page: href=“page.html#anchor”

  4. Navigation Bar • Recommendation • Keep nav bar code the same on all pages • Simple copy and paste • This page: • Can use href=“#” or disable link • But then have to remember to change it • Exception: • If you want to format this page differently

  5. Layout

  6. Basic simple design • Focus on layout • Simple is best • Basic parts • Header (vs. h1 etc format) • Nav(igation) • Section or div for • Main body • Side bar • Footer

  7. How to Tailor Layout • Margins • Positions • Heights

  8. 978 WebsiteUseful Layout Model • What is it? • Demo site • Why useful? • Layout • Easy format • Continuity • Remember… • Continuity • Colors, layout, theme, etc. • Some good examples • Example 1, Example 2

  9. Spacing (e.g., sidebar) • REAL WIDTH = margin+border+padding+width+padding+border+margin • Using a left margin on main content retains the spacing independent of float • Float starts the content adjacent not below

  10. Navigation

  11. Structuring Site Navigation • Three possible models • NEXT and PREV (when fixed order) • Navigation bar to the parts (always EXACT) • Horizontal • Vertical • Single page with links • When use? • Mix and match? Multiple ways? • TOO MUCH NAVIGATION IS AS BAD AS NONE!

  12. Vertical Menu Bar • Better for long lists • Takes width • Will learn how next week

  13. Next - Previous • Consistent placement • Top, bottom, both • Often at the left and right edges • Next class • Structurally keep them together • Text • Images

  14. Horizontal Navigation Bar • Best practice • separate div • inline list

  15. Page / Site Links • Should you distinguish? • Two different bars • Horizontal (site) and vertical (page) • Color, size, font differentiation

  16. Recap: Formatting a navigation bar

  17. Horizontal navigation formatting: list (1 of 2) • Remove bullets from list li { list-style-type: none; } • Make the list horizontal li { display: inline; } • Position <nav> where you want it (left, right, center, top, bottom)

  18. Horizontal navigation formatting: list (2 of 2) • Format the box li { border: 1px solid black; padding: 10px; margin: 0px 1px 0px 1 px; } • Padding will space within box, margin between boxes • Size of box • Vertical: line-height • Horizontal: based on text or width
