Core Framework – Top Navigation v1.0.0 – Documentation

Top Navigation

The global top navigation is ImmobilienScout24's central navigation hub. It links to all of the most relevant product and content pages and provides access to the user's account area.

The header configuration is centrally managed within the CMS, so if you wish to use the top navigation in your pages, you should include it by way of a CMS content snippet. (For more information on how to do that, please refer to the Wiki or bribe your CMS team with shiny things.)

See the Change Log to find out what's changed from previous versions.

CSS and JS Dependencies

The Top Navigation relies on the Core Framework in an arbitrary version, as well as the additional top navigation CSS and JS included in this package.

Note: If you are using the central CMS header, you won't need to include the core-topnavigation resources as they are already delivered as part of the header snippet.

Top Navigation CSS and JS inclusion
<link rel="stylesheet" href="//www.static-immobilienscout24.de/fro/core-topnavigation/1.0.0/css/core-topnavigation.min.css" />
<script src="//www.static-immobilienscout24.de/fro/core-topnavigation/1.0.0/js/core-topnavigation.min.js"></script>

Brand Header

The white section of the top navigation, which includes the brand logo and claim, is a variation of the Core Framework's standard white header. It introduces the page-header--white--composite class, along with a few minor markup changes.

Top navigation brand header (Note that image URLs will differ in production.) 
<header class="page-header page-header--white page-header--white--composite" role="banner">
  <div class="content-wrapper vertical-center-container">
    <a href="index.html" title="ImmobilienScout24" aria-label="ImmobilienScout24" class="page-header__logo vertical-center">
      <img src="../../img/logo/immobilienscout24.svg" alt="ImmobilienScout24"
           onerror="this.src='../../img/logo/immobilienscout24.png';this.onerror=null;" />
    </a><span class="page-header__brand vertical-center">
      Der Marktführer:<br />
      Die Nr. 1 rund um Immobilien
    </span>
  </div>
</header>

Navigation Frame

The top navigation is wrapped in a topnavigation block, which in turn contains a content-wrapper element to get the navigation items aligned with the left and right margins of any other content sections.

Page structure for top navigation
<nav class="topnavigation">
    <div class="content-wrapper"></div>
</nav>

Navigation Levels

Navigation items are grouped into three levels. These levels are displayed differently depending on the navigation state.

Since both the tab navigation (for desktop) and the overlay navigation (for mobile) are based on the same DOM elements, you won't need to maintain two independent navigations.

Tab Navigation

When the tab navigation is active, first-level navigation items are shown as tabs in the orange navigation bar. Second and third-level items are grouped under their respective tabs and will be shown when the user clicks or taps on a tab.

The tab navigation is composed of three main components:

  • The tab navigation list (topnavigation__hover-tabs),
  • the individual list elements, each with a tab label (topnavigation__hover-tabs__label),
  • and the tab layer (topnavigation__hover-layer).
Top navigation tabs (Other classes omitted for the sake of simplicity.)

        <div class="topnavigation__overlay--menu">
            <ul class="topnavigation__hover-tabs">
                <li>
                    <a class="topnavigation__hover-tabs__label" href="#">Wohnen</a>

Active Tabs

Tabs can be highlighted with the active class to give users a general idea about their whereabouts.

Active top navigation tab (Top navigation wrapper left out for the sake of simplicity.) 
<ul class="topnavigation__hover-tabs">
    <li>
        <a class="topnavigation__hover-tabs__label" href="#">Inactive</a>
    </li>
    <li class="active">
        <a class="topnavigation__hover-tabs__label" href="#">Active</a>
    </li>
    <li>
        <a class="topnavigation__hover-tabs__label" href="#">Inactive</a>
    </li>
</ul>

Layer Sizes

Top navigation layers come in two sizes: small and large. Large layers will span the whole width of the top navigation, while small layers are just wide enough for a single link list.

Tab lists opening differently sized layers (Top navigation wrapper left out for the sake of simplicity.) 
<ul class="topnavigation__hover-tabs topnavigation__hover-tabs--small-layers topnavigation__sso-login">
    <li>
        <span class="topnavigation__level--1__label topnavigation__hover-tabs__label">
            A small layer
        </span>
        <div class="topnavigation__level--2 topnavigation__hover-layer topnavigation__hover-layer--right-aligned">
            Nothing much here.
        </div>
    </li>
</ul>
<ul class="topnavigation__hover-tabs topnavigation__hover-tabs--large-layers">
    <li>
        <span class="topnavigation__level--1__label topnavigation__hover-tabs__label">
            A large layer
        </span>
        <div class="topnavigation__level--2 topnavigation__hover-layer">
            This place for rent. Also, blind text. And some more, just to reach the other end of the container
            and force a break.
        </div>
    </li>
</ul>

Layer Alignment

Small layers are by default left-aligned. To align a layer to the right edge of the tab, use the topnavigation__hover-layer--right-aligned class.

Layers aligned to the left and to the right (Top navigation wrapper left out for the sake of simplicity.) 
<ul class="topnavigation__level--1 topnavigation__hover-tabs topnavigation__hover-tabs--small-layers">
    <li>
        <span class="topnavigation__level--1__label topnavigation__hover-tabs__label">
            Left-aligned
        </span>
        <div class="topnavigation__level--2 topnavigation__hover-layer">
            This layer is left-aligned as per default.
        </div>
    </li>
    <li>
        <span class="topnavigation__level--1__label topnavigation__hover-tabs__label">
            Right-aligned
        </span>
        <div class="topnavigation__level--2 topnavigation__hover-layer topnavigation__hover-layer--right-aligned">
            This layer is aligned to the right, which comes in handy if there is not enough space on the right to fit the layer.
        </div>
    </li>
</ul>

Self-aligned Layers

Since the top navigation has flexible dimensions depending on display size, layers may need to be right-aligned only some of the time.

To have layers aligned on demand, set the topnavigation__hover-tabs--self-aligned class on the respective tab list. The required script will be run as part of IS24.core.extensions.topnavigation.init.

A tab list with self-aligned layers
<ul class="topnavigation__hover-tabs topnavigation__hover-tabs--small-layers topnavigation__hover-tabs--self-aligned">
</ul>

Layer Content

The content of a layer is structured differently depending on the layer's size.

Small layers need only the topnavigation__hover-layer__navigation-wrapper wrapper element, which takes care of spacing.

Large layers have a slightly more complex structure to allow for multiple link list blocks, teasers, and equally sized content columns.

Content structure for small and large layers

    <ul class="topnavigation__level--1 topnavigation__hover-tabs topnavigation__hover-tabs--small-layers topnavigation__sso-login">

Account Tab

The account tab layout differs from ordinary tabs. Depending on configuration and log-in status, it may show a user image and a user name.

Account Tab Structure

The account tab contains a number of additional DOM elements.

  1. A user image (topnavigation__sso-login__user-avatar)
  2. A welcome message to the logged-in user (topnavigation__sso-login__welcome-message)
  3. A tab decorator icon (topnavigation__sso-login__tab-decorator)

Also, the classes sso-login and sso-login__user-name serve as handles for the log-in script.

An account tab (Top navigation wrapper left out for the sake of simplicity.)

            </div>
        </li>
    </ul>
</div>

Reduced Account Tab

On small displays, the account tab may be stripped of its label and the user name to save space. To do so, apply the class topnavigation__hover-tabs__label--reduced to the label.

A reduced account tab (Resize the browser window to see the reduced tab.) (Wrapping elements omitted for the sake of simplicity.)

        <span class="topnavigation__sso-login__tab-decorator"></span>
      </span>
    </span>
  </a>
</div>

Log-in Status

The account tab on the right is displayed differently depending on whether or not the user is logged in. The view is toggled with the sso-login--logged-in class on the surrounding list element.

Similarly, the sso-login--show-avatar class determines whether to show or hide the user avatar or placeholder image.

JavaScript

To initialize the top navigation logic (including the slide-in behavior and support for touch interfaces), call IS24.core.extensions.topnavigation.init.

Note: If you use the CMS header snippet, this is already taken care of. 

if (window.IS24 && IS24.core && IS24.core.extensions && IS24.core.extensions.topnavigation) {
  IS24.core.extensions.topnavigation.init();
}
