Blogger Navigation with Post Title

In my blog I've discussed how to customize blogger newer-post and older-post navigation. Today I'll show you how to display post titles with these navigation links. It actually looks good to display blog post titles instead of showing just page navigation buttons.The basic concept behind this trick is simple. We'll use jQuery .get() function to display titles with these links. jQuery introduced this function to load data from the server using a HTTP GET request. Since blogger does not have proper data tag that can load title of previous page or next page, we'll use this jQuery function to load data from the server. I'ill also show you some stylish appearance of post titles with these navigations. However if you know a little bit of css, you can easily customize your blogger appearance.

Breadcrumb Navigation

Breadcrumb navigation (as well recognized as 'Breadcrumb trail') is a navigation widget that lets users to know their position in the hierarchy of a website and to retrace their steps to fail back to beginning with less time and elbow grease. It can be seen in many websites horizontally just above the post title (or maybe below header), and contains links to categories that related to the posts, the reader is currently on. It is an alternative method of navigation which in fact increases the usability of a website. Often a slash ( / ), a single right angle quote ( › ) or even a double right angle quote ( » ) is used as separator in breadcrumb hierarchy.

Scroll to an Internal Link

Scrolling within page i.e. scroll to an internal link has experienced a huge growth in popularity in web design in recent years. Perhaps you’ve seen it before that when you click a link in the navigation, it takes you not to another page but a specific point within the current page. Actually it is very easy to do with some extremely basic HTML but if you want a nice scrolling animation when page goes up or bottom, you have to add some jQuey along with the HTML. This tutorial is about how to scroll to an internal link. I wish this simple and little trick works for you.

Scroll to Top and Bottom

Every professional blogger should look after the decoration of their blog carefully so that visitors can navigate easily throughout the blog. If your blog have infinite page scroll or your post contains information, a lot, it would be very annoying for every reader to go back to the top of the page by either refreshing the page or dragging the scroll bar all the way back to the top. Jump to top (and bottom) is that's why very essential element for every blog decoration. But it would be far more stunning to scroll gradually instead of just jump to the top (which exactly Home button does). You can find this feature in almost every blog and website. This tutorial will show you how to add a modern and simple scroll button to your blog.

Dropdown Menu for Blogger

It is really important and essential to give an abstract view of your blog to your blog readers. This not only increases your blog traffic but also shows your sophistication level. Now in order to do that, you have to implement various widgets in your blog; among which navigation menu is an essential one. But among all of the different types of menus that can be used on a website, a dropdown menu benefits the most. A dropdown menu is able to organize all contents into smaller sub-categories that are easy to navigate. By using a dropdown menu with a large list of categories and sub-categories, the surfing experience of your visitors can be improved.
