After the “main” area, it can optionally have an index which lists its contents in a variety of ways. It is made up of objects as well.įor a folder, which we call a collection, its index.html page can be any page type. The main area is the area which holds the main contents.Īn article div contains a single block of text & graphics.Įach article can have a callout which is supplemental content for that article. Generally, content in a object should be centered (e.g. On most page types (the “allow-sidebar” ones), there is a sidebar which contains objects (a small unit of content), at least 200px wide. The sitemenu holds a short list of links to main pages on the website You may want to center the logo horizontally and vertically in the space allotted for it see the thumbnail section for more details. A page should look good with a logo of any size - or no logo at all. See below.Ī page can optionally have a logo image set for it. The body of a page generated by Sandvox may have one or more classes associated with it. When the real page is published, it hopefully won't need to rely on the min-height property (since that property is not supported in IE 6). If you need to use min-height to force elements to be at least a certain size, that is a good workaround - we want the layout to look OK when it's empty for the authoring environment (which uses Safari's rendering engine). So be sure your design works OK if there is basically no content. JavaScript for special effects and such are OK, as long as the site works perfectly well without JavaScript enabled! It should definitely not be required for navigation.Ī page will generally not be empty, except that when the page is first created, it will start out empty. Special effects (such as having items appear to move when you scroll) are OK but should not be intrusive. Many header level text elements can be processed and converted into a graphic that is displayed in place of the text, as well we call this "Header Textual Images” (described later in this document) Repeated elements have special markup that allows variety in the output. The HTML markup is very rich, with many opportunities for a designer to hook into special div's throughout the page. text page, photo-viewing page, etc.) that the designer will want to take advantage of.
Most pages have the same overall structure, but there are several different page types (e.g. Site/Page titles could go on the top, side or bottom sidebars can go to the left or right layouts can even be horizontally scrolling instead of vertically. Unlike some web-building programs where designs are simply “skins” on a fixed layout, Sandvox designs are completely abstract, subject to a few sizing constraints. Everybody reading this document should be sure to read Sandvox Designers Only for a designer-centric look at Sandvox.
