Items Affecting All Internal Pages: Links and the Hat general notes

LINKS Unless specified otherwise, Text Links will appear

o blue and underlined when the link appears on a light colored background (like the Hat) o onMouseOver, the underlined status of a Text Link will change (links will become non-underlined)

Video icon is a link that goes to the same destination as the text that corresponds to the graphic (e.g., the Video Clip or Video Category title) … there is no onMouseOver event for the Video icon

If user clicks on a Video Clip or Video Category title, then the Video Player appears in a separate

window, but the main browser window remains unchanged HugMe Icon and Temperature are links that go to the PIF for the corresponding Location THE HAT The Hat appears on all Internal pages except those that lack Primary and Secondary Nav (see P. 33) Modes

o The same components will be displayed for the various Mode combinations of Hugged, Customized, and Registered

See P. 5 for a table containing logic for how components appear for different Mode combinations

o The Hat will include HugMe promo OR data, as well as the Desktop promo o Beginning on P. 7, Hat images are shown for the various combinations of a user being

Hugged, Customized, and/or Registered. Sign In flow

o Before Signing in to Registered Products area, the label is “Sign In” which leads to a PopHat area that provides fields for User Name and Password, a Sign In button, and links to forgotPassword (goes to Forgot Password page), Help (goes to main Sign In page), and Close (makes PopHat invisible)

o After successful sign in to Registered Products area the Hat includes a PopHat area containing Registered Products the PopHat can be made invisible or visible by clicking Hide Products (when

visible) and the Show Products link (when not visible) the Sign In link is labeled “Sign Out”

o If errors occur during Sign In, we will navigate the user to the current Sign In page to present error messages

o See Sign In flow diagram on P. 6 Hat tracking strings are found on P. 4

(See P. 36)

• We will not indicate a link’s visited state

o the “Sign In” link has an ALT tag of “Sign In to Registered Products Area”, and the “Sign Out” link has an ALT tag of “Sign Out of Registered Products Area

Items Affecting All Internal Pages, continued: the Hat general notes

The Desktop promotional labels "Weather on your desktop” and “Get this on your desktop" should be easily edit-able through a content management tool.

HugMe data in Hat must match that in PIF (if Location = HugMe Location) and that in PopHat … they

should follow the same cache and frequency business rules truncation rules:

o If First Name > 8 characters, then present first five characters followed by ellipses (“…”); for example:

• “Mary Ann” is shown as “Mary Ann” • “Elizabeth” is shown as “Eliza…”

o If Location Name > 20 characters, then present first seventeen characters followed by ellipses (“…”); for example: • “San Francisco123, CA” is shown as “San Francisco123, CA” • “San Francisco123456, CA” is shown as “San Francisco1234…”

[NOTE: it is undetermined whether HugMe or other Hat content might be removed from the Hat during Severe conditions.]

Page Description: This type of page includes all pages on the site EXCEPT the Home Page and except any page that lacks the Primary Nav component. This latter page type includes all Registration pages (e.g., Register on weather.com, 1-click Access, My Profile, Customize weather.com, and various product registrations), Store, and Jobs (see P. 36).

Breadcrumbs: Please see P. 20

Tracking Strings: Certain internal page types will have distinct tracking strings for Global Nav, and the remaining internal pages will share a common tracking string. For the page components listed on the following page, tracking strings will follow this format: ?from=[component type]_[optional page type indicator]. Internal page types with distinct tracking strings are Channel Welcome, Channel Weather, and PIF/City pages (independent of Timeframe).

“In Season” tracking strings will be defined based on the particular items in that menu, and these strings should be unique when a particular Channel can be accessed from more than one Secondary Nav item. For example, In Season might include a link to Cold & Flu during the winter months, which can also be accessed via the Stay Healthy Primary Nav category. In such a case, the In Season tracking string for Cold & Flu’s Secondary Nav might be “?from= SeasCold_gn_welcome”, while the Stay Healthy string might be “?from=gn_welcome” … “In Season” tracking strings will be defined when each version of this dynamic menu is defined.

Maintenance of the In Season Secondary Nav items will not be done through an auto-publish, and we still need to identify who will maintain this list of items. Such maintenance will be defined in the Home Page to Beta project.

In Season could include links to any page on the site. In Season’s Secondary Nav will require content management software back end to define Presentation Name (of link), URL, order of items. This could be changed as often as daily.

The table on the next page defines tracking strings to distinguish between redundant access points.

–This menu list control should be coded to allow easy changes to its <SELECT> items, both labeling and order via Bugzilla–We might need to change the <TOP> and <LEFT> attributes of this control to allow for easy re-positioning during Beta testing

•We will need a “plug-n-play” capability for the location of the What menu dropdown list•Alternate locations include the Breadcrumbs row to the left of RSS icon and somewhere in the Header area

–We do not anticipate changing the Location after Beta, and the menu items will likely change no more than monthly

BEHAVIOR•onClick:

–standard dropdown behavior, but this control cannot bleed through if an Out-of-Banner ad displays on top of the What menu–If any user picks an item off the list, the system responds by Declaring the user and displaying the Declared PIF page for the current ZIP Code and current Timeframe (e.g., “Hour by Hour”) for the Channel Category selected from the list

[NOTE: Breadcrumbs need to be added to several types of pages, as indicated in List of All Page Types on P. 38.]

Breadcrumbs will no longer include a link to the Home Page or the Family Welcome page.

The topmost hierarchical link in Breadcrumbs will link to the landing page for the current Secondary Nav area or Six Links area. The topmost link will combine the Primary Nav and Secondary Nav labels and will be formatted based on the following examples:• Around the Home: Pets > Weekend Weather for Athens, GA (30606)• Mobile: Take the Weather with You > Downloads

APPEARANCEFor 36 Hour pages (PIF and City pages), Breadcrumbs format is [Family Name]:[Channel Name] > [Timeframe] Weather for [City, State, (Zip)]

For example, see http://www.weather.com/activities/travel/businesstraveler/weather/weekend.html?locid=30606

•Current Breadcrumbs are “Home > Travel > Business Travel > Business Travel Forecast > Weekend Weather for Athens, GA”•New Breadcrumbs will be “Travel Smart: Flights & Business Travel > Weekend Weather for Athens, GA (30306) ”

–Note that ZIP Code isn’t always available, in which case “ (99999)” is not displayed

Requirements for All Internal Pages w/ Primary Nav, continued: Breadcrumbs notes

• With the exception of PIF/City, Channel Welcome, and Channel Weather pages, all other pages that have Breadcrumbs on the current site will still have Breadcrumbs, but their Primary Nav and Secondary Nav labels will change:

– http://www.weather.com/mobile/wap.html: • Current Breadcrumbs are “Home > Mobile Welcome > Wireless Internet” • New Breadcrumbs will be “Mobile: Take the Weather with You > Wireless Internet”

– http://www.weather.com/activities/health/coldandflu/nationalreports/national.html • Current Breadcrumbs are “Home > Health > Cold & Flu > Flu Reports ” and Page Title will

be “Flu Reports” • New Breadcrumbs are “Stay Healty: Cold & Flu > Flu Reports ”

• Breadcrumbs will use “book title” (i.e., capitalize keywords but not prepositions, conjunctions, etc.) capitalization, with the exception of City/PIF pages only … the Timeframe portion of the City/PIF pages’ Breadcrumbs will be all caps as follows:

Travel Smart: Flights & Business Travel > YESTERDAY’S WEATHER for Athens, GA (30606) Travel Smart: Flights & Business Travel > TODAY’S WEATHER for Athens, GA (30606) Travel Smart: Flights & Business Travel > HOUR-BY-HOUR WEATHER for Athens, GA (30606) Travel Smart: Flights & Business Travel > WEEKEND WEATHER for Athens, GA (30606) Travel Smart: Flights & Business Travel > 10-DAY WEATHER for Athens, GA (30606) Travel Smart: Flights & Business Travel > MONTHLY WEATHER for Athens, GA (30606)

• Breadcrumbs will wrap to two rows when necessary but should only word wrap after a “>” • Breadcrumbs should be vertically centered within the Breadcrumb row … i.e., a one-row Breadcrumb will have

the same vertical center as does a two-row Breadcrumb • An exhaustive list of all Page Types is shown on Pp. 38 to 42. • Several types of pages do not have Breadcrumbs on the current site. These pages will need to have a Page

Title added to match all other pages on the site. The list on Pp. 38 to 42 indicates which Page Types require a new Page Title.

• [NOTE: First Module Titles might change during HTML.]

[10] Primary Nav

Please note that the target area for MouseOver and MouseOut should be easy to change so that we can adjust these targets to improve the users’ ability to control the cursor as they select a desired Secondary Nav item. This will be determined through informal usability testing in HTML/Development stage after the product is interactive enough to evaluate ease-of-use

APPEARANCE •the order and labels of the menu items are dynamic and could change as often as monthly through a Bugzilla with a QC test involved•We will need the ability to change the labels, grouping, and order of Primary and Secondary Nav items … though this won’t happen often, it will likely require an content management software back-end, and these new groupings, labels, and orders will affect the following page components:

– <TITLE> tag (e.g., Internet Explorer’s blue Title Bar at the top of every window)–Page Title–Footer–Secondary Nav–Primary Nav–What menu

•There are new Channel Category groupings for Primary and Secondary Nav (see Pp. 25 - 28)•When the page first draws, one Category will appear as default (see the following NOTE for exceptions), but that Category's secondary menu will NOT be visible.

-- [NOTE: there are pages on which no Primary Nav Tab will be highlighted. See the topmost image to the left. This is when the page does not fit under the Secondary Nav categories. Example page types are Maps, Video, Registration, Sign In, Notify, and Undeclared City pages. In such cases, no Tab is highlighted. See comprehensive list of Page Types on Pp. 38 to 42.]

•In Season -- the items falling under In Season are dynamic and are intended to be used to promote calendar-based content or other content supporting a short-term high-priority business need -- should have a content management back end to allow easy updates as often as dailiy

In Season the items falling under In Season are dynamic and are intended to be used to promote calendar-based content or other content supporting a short-term high-priority business need

We should consider content management software as a means to define the contents of In Season’s Secondary Nav as well as the destination URLs and tracking strings for each Secondary Nav item

In Season is allowed to contain any links – unlike other Primary Nav Categories, these do not necessarily lead to

Channel Welcome or a Video Page

SECONDARY NAV TECHNICAL NOTES

• We cannot break the underlying Channel file hierarchy (it’s a pure hierarchy … each Vertical appears under exactly one Category) … if Channels appear under more than one Primary Nav area, then how can we highlight the Tab for the right Primary Nav area when the Channel could have been accessed from more than one Primary Nav area? Both In Season and Plan Ahead Categories could include Channels that are redundantly available, and within the underlying Channel file hierarchy, we should think of such Channels being located under Categories besides In Season and Plan Ahead

– We must assume ads and the rest of page Bodies are the same on Channel Welcome pages representing the same Channel but accessible from more than one Channel Category. For example, page Bodies are identical for these two Channel Welcome pages:

• In Season > Allergies & Pollen • Stay Healthy > Allergies & Pollen                                                  

– the only difference between InSeason>Allergies&Pollen and StayHealthy>Allergies&Pollen is purely limited to highlighting Tabs and presenting the corresponding Breadcrumbs … if the user navigated via InSeason, then In Season Tab should be highlighted on the resulting Channel Welcome page, and the Breadcrumbs would read “In Season: Allergies & Pollen … similarly, if they came via Stay Healthy, then the Stay Healthy Tab will be highlighted on the resulting Channel Welcome page, and the Breadcrumbs would read “Stay Healthy: Allergies & Pollen

– Note that if the user links beyond the Channel Welcome page, then the In Season Tab will NOT be highlighted and the Channels’ “permanent location” will be highlighted, and the Breadcrumbs will reflect the “permanent location” (in the case of Allergies&Pollen, Stay Healthy Tab is highlighted, and the Breadcrumbs read “Stay Healthy: Allergies & Pollen > xxx)

– Same rules apply for the following Plan Ahead Secondary Nav item “Vacation & Travel Guide”• We must assume ads and the rest of page Bodies are the same on Channel Welcome pages representing the same Channel but accessible

from more than one Channel Category. For example, page Bodies are identical for these two Channel Welcome pages: – Plan Ahead > Vacation & Travel Guide – Travel Smart > Vacation & Travel Guide                                                   

• the only difference between PlanAhead>Vacation&TravelGuide and TravelSmart>Vacation&TravelGuide is purely limited to highlighting Tabs and presenting the corresponding Breadcrumbs … if the user navigated via Plan Ahead, then Plan Ahead Tab should be highlighted on the resulting Channel Welcome page, and the Breadcrumbs would read “Plan Ahead: Vacation & Travel Guide” … similarly, if they came via Travel Smart, then the Travel Smart Tab will be highlighted on the resulting Channel Welcome page and the Breadcrumbs would read “Travel Smart: Vacation & Travel Guide”

• Note that if the user links beyond the Channel Welcome page, then Plan Ahead will NOT be highlighted and the Channels’ “permanent location” will be highlighted (in the case of Vacation&TravelGuide, Travel Smart is highlighted)

– PLEASE NOTE: Similar logic applies to any Six Links items that are accessed via In Season … in this case, the In Season Tab should be highlighted on the landing page of the clicked Six Links item, and Breadcrumbs will read “In Season: [Six Links Title]” (e.g., “In Season: News > Hurricane Central”) … again in this case, if the user links beyond the Six Links landing page, then In Season will NOT be highlighted and the areas’ “permanent location” will be highlighted (in the case of Hurricane Central, the Six Links item “News” is highlighted)

• Can we retain the user's current ZIP/location so they don't need to re-enter it when going from PIF/City to a Channel Welcome, HiRad, or other pages for that ZIP/location? 

– Examples include • going from PIF/City to HiRad … if Location is known, then go straight to a list of HiRad Locations (e.g.,

http://www.weather.com/search/hyper/30606?sloctype=19) for that HiRad Category and the current Location/ZIP – Typically, Secondary Nav would lead to Channel Welcome … in the case of HiRad, this would be something like

“Parks in Your Area Welcome” (see P. 31)– if we know the Location, when the user goes via Secondary Nav to HiRad, then we would go straight to a list of Parks for

that Location (see P. 32) and bypass Parks in Your Area Welcome– If we do not know the Location (as when the user is on Home, Channel Welcome, or Deep Vertical Article), when the user

goes via Secondary Nav to HiRad, then we would go to Parks in Your Area Welcome with no Location in context• Going from PIF/City to Channel Welcome … pre-populate the Locator text box on Channel Welcome to reflect the ZIP Code of the

current Location

Global Nav to Beta Reqts: REALLY Final Version 2.1

31

Requirements for My Neighborhood Welcome Page

On the current site, the user can only access HiRad content from the PIF page, in which case we know the users’ Location and canImmediately present a list of HiRad Locations for the current Location and HiRad Category.

In the new Global Nav, users can use the My Neighborhood Primary Navigation to go to My Neighborhood when there is no Location in context (e.g., from the Home Page, Channel Welcome, or Article pages).

In such cases, they would view this page.

This page includes the Footer and includes promotional text (pending) to promote not only the current HiRad Category, but it also promotes TWC HiRad in general.

[1] Users enter a City, ZIP, or other Location Type relevant to the current HiRad Category … they click Go to view the My Neighborhood Listing page (see P. 32).

[2] link brings up our standard Help popup to be controlled by a content-management system, in which the following text appears: “HiRADTM  (High Resolution Aggregated Data) technology.  This groundbreaking advance in the synthesis of weather information will enable The Weather Channel to deliver a comprehensive and accurate weather report for 1,000 times more locations than previously available.  For the first time, you can easily view neighborhood weather information for locations throughout the country that are most important to you, such as local schools, parks, golf courses and shopping malls.  By delivering weather information for landmarks within a city (such as shopping malls, parks, schools and intersections) The Weather Channel fills a void left by traditional weather reports, which may be generated from stations separated by a distance of up to 50 miles.  The new HiRAD technology was developed by a team of expert scientists from The Weather Channel.  It carefully aggregates weather information from existing sensors (such as National Weather Service stations and others) and satellite and radar images and applies proprietary formulas to create an exclusive report that will reflect the actual conditions less than one mile away from any point of interest in the U.S.”

[4] Location link will go to the PIF page for that Location

[5] Search text box and Go button

APPEARANCEIn image to right, remove “Don’t see your Golf Course?” and change following label to “Enter a different location to search for Local Parks in other areas”.

Requirements for TV Landing Page

Marketing needs an easy way to change the content on this page to meet their ever-changing promotional needs. We will require an content management tool front end to populate all attributes (e.g., Headline, Instruction, link labels and destinations) for items [2] and [7], and items [3] and [4] should be populated in an automatic fashion.

[NOTE: any time a Program’s title or thumbnail appear, the user can click them to go to a “detailed page” for that Program. If we have a clip for a program in the Video Player, then the user views this clip in Video Player. If there is no Video Player clip for the Program but there is a short clip viewable on the Schedule & Programs page, then the user views this clip in Schedule&Programs.]

The business requirements for the Seasonal Color Palette are the same as they are for the current site, with the following exceptions.

The following page attributes will now change each season:• All Channel Welcome header images

– all Channel Welcomes will have their own header image, even those Channel Welcome pages on the current site that inherit their header from their Family (e.g., Allergies and Cold&Flu currently share the same “Health” banner)

• TV’s and News’ Secondary Nav background color (both selected and unselected)• All Six Links items should have their own header image (Maps, Video, News, TV, Mobile, Downloads)

Requirements for Local Severe and Site Severe

Business requirements for Local Severe and Site Severe remain unchanged, with the following exception regarding Local Severe. On the current site, storm types other than Hurricanes (i.e., Thunderstorm, Tornado, Tropical, and Winter) have distinct header images depending on whether the storm is in Warning or Watch Mode. In the new design, header images for a storm type will be constant, and the storm Mode (Warning or Watch) will be distinguished using HTML text that floats on top of the shared header image.

There is no Headerspon in Alert Mode.

[NOTE: it is undetermined whether HugMe or other Hat content might be removed from the Hat during Severe conditions.]
