Navigator formatting examples
You use HTML to format the layout of a navigator.
- Navigator elements can have more than one element design.
- Each level in the navigator can have its own element design.
- If you want all the levels in your navigator to look the same, then you only have to build one element design.
- If there are three levels in a site area but only two element designs in your navigator, then the last two levels in your navigator use the final element design.
The following tables contain some examples of the ways you can format the look of a navigator.
Simple two-level navigator
This example shows the basic structure of the element design used by a navigator.
| Navigator result design 1
A <b> tag is added to display the text in the first level of the navigator in bold.
|
<b>
|
| Navigator result design 2
The second design will be repeated for every link returned by the parameters defined in the navigator element below the first level.
|
<placeholder tag="namelink" />

Two-level navigator in a table
To have your navigator display as a table, a table row and table cell tag (<tr><td>) are added at the beginning and </td></tr> added at the end of each element design. Table tags are added to the header and footer.
| Header | <Table> |
| Navigator result design 1 |
<tr><td>
|
| Navigator result design 2 |
<tr><td>
|
| Footer | </Table> |
