--------------------------------
This Javascript Include file is used on every page of the
industrial solution site, that is any page that lives within
the http://www.panasonic.com/industrial/ directory, EXCEPT for the Homepage, which uses homenav.js.
PURPOSE:
Allows quick changes and updates to all global elements.
> Provides the entire global navigation, which when the page is viewed
is located on the far left of every page. The original site had the
global navigation on the bottom of the page, the redesign moved it to the
left nav.
> Provide a string to build the copyright image on every page.
> Provide a string to build the top banner imagemap on every page.
COMPONENTS:
GLOBAL NAV STRING BUILDER:
This consists of an ARRAY (var nav) which controls what the FULL NAME of
the section it links to and the DIRECTORY in which it resides separated
by a PIPE (|).
The GET CURRENT DIRECTORY section simply gets the document.location.pathname
and splits on the "/". ( IE: http://www.panasonic.com/industrial/computer/ )
We know the first element is blank, and we know the second element is "industrial".
The third element ( getHilightState[2] ) is the directory the browser is referencing
regardless of the file name.
The START WRITING NAVIGATION section of this file does the work.
It creates a string, ( globalNavTable )
For each element in the NAV ARRAY we check to see if the DIRECTORY
matches the current ARRAY ELEMENT. if it does we we simply add
correct HTML to the string that highlights the current table cell.
This is accomplished by using the "hilightedNavCell" style.
The entire string is called from memory from each individual
page using a document.write statement.
This is the code found on each page:
FOOTER STRING BUILDER:
This section builds the string ( var copyrightFooter)
used to print out the global copyright image which is
centered under the content of every page. The entire
string is called from memory from each individual
page using a document.write statement.
This is the code found on each page:
BANNER IMAGEMAP BUILDER:
This section builds the string ( var mapCoords)
used to print out the global top banner imagemap which is
found on the top of evry page. The entire
string is called from memory from each individual
page using a document.write(mapCoords) statement.
This is the code found on each page:
