Discuss the components of an effective navigation structure.
What will be an ideal response?
When you create a website, it is important to consider how your viewers will navigate from page to page within the site. A menu bar is a critical tool for moving around a site, so it is important that all text, buttons, and icons you use on a menu bar have a consistent look across all pages. If you use a complex menu bar, such as one that incorporates JavaScript or Flash, it is a good idea to include plain text links in another location on the page for accessibility. Otherwise, viewers might become confused or lost within the site.
A navigation structure can include more links than those included in a menu bar, however. For instance, it can contain other sets of links that relate to the content of specific pages. They can be placed at the bottom or sides of a page in a different format. No matter how you decide to design your navigation structure, make sure that every page includes a link back to the home page.
Other good navigation strategies that promote accessibility include adding keyboard equivalents for navigation elements, labeling all links, and incorporating jump menus to enable users to skip to links.
