Navbox

The navbox pattern is used to present featured navigation items with an optional background image and paragraph.

Rules for the navbox

Must only be used within the main body of the page or within the aside.
Must only link to an internal webpage or web application.
Medium navboxes must not have a title that exceeds 88 characters.
Small navboxes must not have a title that exceeds 57 characters.
When using an image, the image must relate to the link destination.
Navboxes with accompanying paragraphs must not have more than 300 characters.

Navbox sizes

Navboxes are available in two different sizes: regular (⅓) and large (½). Available combinations of these sizes can been found on the navbox-grid pattern page.

If using an image, see the table below for image sizes.
