As you know some internet people do not use javascript. The most important
of all are the search-engines.
Now we have modified the default behavior of panels
If panel is of type navigation it will load with the following div
<div class="panel collapsed MoreAboutCdls Navigation">
...
</div>
Other wise it will load as
<div class="panel expanded Diaporama Information">
...
</div>
The result is that navigation panels that contain mostly links to other
parts of the site show only the titlebar, when user clicks on that it
expands and reveals the navigation links; we believe this reduces screen
clutter.
My question is two:
1) When java script is turned of there is no way a user can see the links.
What would be the effect on search engines, will they see the links? I see
the html with the links when I use html-source code, it is just hidden by
the CSS!
2) Disabled people that are deaf or blind often use browsers without
javascript.
How could I have achieved the same with some changes. I would prefer the
panel to load 'expanded' then with javascript that would set all panels of
type Navigation to collapsed after the page load. But allow the user to
click on the header and set it to expanded.
