The T-21.com
Web Site is Designed to Allow
You to Rapidly Find What You Want.
NAVIGATION
LINKS.
T-21.com uses only well-defined
links to other pages.
These always appear in the following format: Linkname
-or- LINKNAME.
Locate the tip of your
cursor on one of these (above) and it will change color.
One click with your left mouse button will take you to that link's
destination. (Try clicking one of the links, above; it will
navigate you back to this point.) Note: Links
may appear in three different colors, similar to the following
illustrations:
- "Bold Blue"
for links that you have not visited recently.
- "Bold Red"
for links which are touched by your cursor - ready to be
'clicked.'
- "Bold
Purple"
for links that you've have recently visited, but may still be
viewed again.
- [Note:
Buttons will always appear in underlined, Bold Blue - not
Red or Purple]
WEB
SITE STRUCTURE.
To
most efficiently use the T-21 Web Site, it's important to
understand how it is structured.
- The Highest Level
is "T-21
Central"
- our Home Page.
- The First Level
Down from "T-21 Central" is the Division
level (e.g. - Graphics Division, Office Support
Division, Research Division, Web Site Services
Division, and so on).
- The Next Level
Down from the Division level is the Department
level. For example, within the "Graphics"
Division, there are several Departments, each with a different
specialty, including:
Charts / Graphs /
Diagrams
(specialty)
Facility / Space Planning
(specialty)
Logos
(specialty)
Maps
(specialty)
Signs
(specialty)
Other Service Specialties ...
- Below these
Departments, there can be finer breakdowns.
For instance, below the Graphics Division there is
a Logos Department; below this Department,
there are two types of Logos: Semi-Custom
and Custom service options.
This hierarchal
structure makes it easier for you to find what you want
and never get "lost." You may jump to any level
you desire with one click. In concept, the T-21 Web Site
structure looks something like the illustration, below (this is only a
very abbreviated example of the actual structure):
- Every Division
Web Page will contain links, in a horizontal line, to Departments
below it and to "T-21 Central" (Home Page) and
the "Contact Us" Web Pages above it.
- Each Department
Web Page will contain similarly structured links to Services
within it as well as links to its Division and to "T-21
Central" and the "Contact Us" Web Pages
above it.
- Other "view and
close" Informational Web Pages may also be included in
these horizontal link bars.
NAVIGATION
OPTIONS.
You'll notice
that, at the top and the bottom of T-21 Web Pages, there is either
a choice of clicking a link on a Menu Bar (a horizontal row
of links) - or a
notice to close the page with your browser. We'll
examine each of these in turn:
MENU
BARS.
These are common on T-21 Web Pages. At both the
top and the bottom of these Web Pages, you are presented with a horizontal
line of links to other Web Pages.
The order
of the links is generally: 'most detailed' on the
left - going to 'broadest' on the right.
Therefore, a Department Web Page will first link to Services within
it on the left - then, as you look rightward, it's links will go up to
its Division's Web Page, then to "T-21 Central"
(Home Page) and the "Contact" Web Page (see diagram,
above). Just remember:
Detailed
>
> > > >
Broader
This
structure allows you to quickly navigate to any point in the T-21
Web Site. An illustration (not operative), taken from
our Research Division, is shown below:
GENERAL
Research |
MARKET
Research |
PRODUCT
Research |
SOLUTION
Research |
T-21
Central |
Contact
T-21 |
Note that, starting
at the left, the first four links are Departments within the Research
Division. Since this menu is at the Division level, the
next level up is "T-21 Central" (Home Page) and "Contact"
Web Pages, which are displayed on the right.

INFORMATIONAL PAGES.
These T-21 Web Pages are "FYI" pages,
which may be linked from a number of different places in the T-21
Web Site. They are meant to be read, then closed -
thereby returning you to the exact spot where you were, prior to reading
the Informational Web Page. On these Web Pages, you will see
messages at the top and bottom, similar to the following:
CLOSE
THIS PAGE AFTER VIEWING
( Use
Your Browser's "X"
Button, Above ) |
This
message indicates that, when you have finished reading that page, you should use the "x" button on your
browser to close the page. Close Web Pages with your
browser only when you see this instruction. The close
page procedure varies only slightly in different browsers - for
example:
-
MICROSOFT
INTERNET EXPLORER™ - CLOSE THE
PAGE WITH THE BROWSER'S "X" BUTTON, LOCATED AT THE
TOP-RIGHT OF YOUR VIDEO SCREEN'S WINDOW.
-
"TABBED
BROWSERS" (e.g. - FIREFOX™) -
CLOSE THE RIGHTMOST 'TAB' WITH ITS "X" BUTTON (LOCATED IN A
BAR, JUST ABOVE THE WEB SITE CONTENT).
OTHER
NAVIGATION SHORTCUTS.
On the first
half of "T-21 Central" (Home Page) - you'll note that you
have direct access to every Division, Department, and Service
that T-21 offers - by clicking the links entitled: "SERVICE
DEPARTMENTS"
and / or "SITE
MAP."
