Der Header ist der obere Abschnitt einer Webseite oder Applikation, der wichtige Navigationselemente enthält, um Nutzenden den Zugang zu den Hauptbereichen der Seite oder Applikation zu erleichtern.

The sbb-header component is a container for actions and a logo, and it is displayed at the top of the page.
The slot can contain:
.sbb-header-logo class (see sbb-logo)Slotted elements are aligned to the left. Use <div class="sbb-header-spacer"> to align elements after it to the right.
<sbb-header>
<sbb-header-link icon-name="hamburger-menu-small" href="https://sbb.ch/somewhere">
Menu
</sbb-header-link>
<sbb-header-button icon-name="magnifying-glass-small">Search</sbb-header-button>
<div class="sbb-header-spacer"></div>
<a aria-label="Homepage" href="/" class="sbb-header-logo">
<sbb-logo protective-room="none"></sbb-logo>
</a>
</sbb-header>
Setting the expanded property will cause the sbb-header component to take up the full width of the page.
To avoid that tabbed/focused elements get hidden behind the header,
it's recommended to set on the <html> tag the CSS property scroll-padding-top to var(--sbb-header-height) or to a greater value.
With this, it's ensured that content will be visible all the time.
The component has two sizes, named m (default) and s.
For the latter, the usage of the sbb-signet with protective-room='panel' is suggested.
<sbb-header size="s">
<sbb-header-link icon-name="hamburger-menu-small" href="https://sbb.ch/somewhere">
Menu
</sbb-header-link>
<sbb-header-button icon-name="magnifying-glass-small">Search</sbb-header-button>
<div class="sbb-header-spacer"></div>
<a aria-label="Homepage" href="/" class="sbb-header-logo">
<sbb-signet protective-room="panel"></sbb-signet>
</a>
</sbb-header>
To indicate an active state of the sbb-header-link or sbb-header-button,
the CSS class sbb-active should be set on the corresponding element.
From accessibility perspective accessibility-current="page" (or aria-current="page" for buttons)
should be set whenever the CSS class sbb-active is set.
<sbb-header size="s">
<sbb-header-link
icon-name="magnifying-glass-small"
href="https://sbb.ch/somewhere"
class="sbb-active"
accessibility-current="page"

Overview
</sbb-header-link>
<div class="sbb-header-spacer"></div>
<a aria-label="Homepage" href="/" class="sbb-header-logo">
<sbb-signet protective-room="panel"></sbb-signet>
</a>
</sbb-header>
By default, the sbb-header has a fixed position at the top of the page;
when the page is scrolled down, a box-shadow appears below it and the component remains visible.
It's possible to change this behavior by setting the hideOnScroll property to true, or adding the hide-on-scroll
attribute: in this case, the box-shadow is still set, but the component disappears when the page is scrolled down and
then reappears as soon as it's scrolled up. It's also possible to bind this behaviour to something other than the document,
using the scrollOrigin property, which accepts an HTMLElement or the id of the element to search for.
<sbb-header expanded hideOnScroll>
<sbb-header-button icon-name="magnifying-glass-small">Search</sbb-header-button>
<div class="sbb-header-spacer"></div>
<a aria-label="Homepage" href="/" class="sbb-header-logo">
<sbb-logo protective-room="none"></sbb-logo>
</a>
</sbb-header>
Users can customize position and behaviour of actions inside the sbb-header component
by adding classes to sbb-header-button/sbb-header-link elements and then defining their own style rules.
All the examples in Storybook have the following requirements:
expand-from set to small;To achieve the alignment requirements, two div tags with a CSS class named sbb-header-spacer were added:
sbb-header-button item (that will be hidden on smaller screen sizes);sbb-header-spacer-logo);We also need a class (in this example last-element) on the last sbb-header-button to achieve requirement n° 4.
Finally, the following custom CSS has been added(*).
The result can also be seen in the home and home-logged-in stories.
.last-element,
.sbb-header-spacer-logo {
display: none;
}
@media screen and (width >= 600px) {
.last-element {
display: block;
}
}
@media screen and (width < 1024px) {
.sbb-header-spacer {
display: none;
}
.sbb-header-spacer-logo {
display: block;
}
}
<sbb-header>
<sbb-header-button icon-name="..." expand-from="small"> ... </sbb-header-button>
<!-- Will be hidden on small screen sizes -->
<div class="sbb-header-spacer"></div>
<sbb-header-button icon-name="..."> ... </sbb-header-button>
<sbb-header-button icon-name="..."> ... </sbb-header-button>
<sbb-header-button icon-name="..." class="last-element"> ... </sbb-header-button>
<!-- Will only be shown on small screen sizes -->
<div class="sbb-header-spacer sbb-header-spacer-logo"></div>
<a aria-label="Homepage" href="/" class="sbb-header-logo">
<sbb-logo protective-room="none"></sbb-logo>
</a>
</sbb-header>
The sbb-header can be also customized by adding the application's name and version:
a helper class named sbb-header-info is provided to achieve the correct visual result.
<sbb-header size="s">
<sbb-header-link icon-name="hamburger-menu-small" href="https://sbb.ch/somewhere">
Menu
</sbb-header-link>
<span class="sbb-header-info">
<strong>Application name</strong>
<span>V. 1.1</span>
</span>
<div class="sbb-header-spacer"></div>
<a aria-label="Homepage" href="/" class="sbb-header-logo">
<sbb-signet protective-room="panel"></sbb-signet>
</a>
</sbb-header>
If a certain sbb-header-button/sbb-header-link should be shrunken (receive ellipsis) when there is too little space,
set the CSS class sbb-header-shrinkable on the desired sbb-header-button/sbb-header-link.
<sbb-header>
<sbb-header-link icon-name="hamburger-menu-small" href="https://sbb.ch/somewhere" target="_blank">
Menu
</sbb-header-link>
<sbb-header-button class="sbb-header-shrinkable">
Christina Müller has a long name
</sbb-header-button>
<div class="sbb-header-spacer"></div>
<a aria-label="Homepage" href="/" class="sbb-header-logo">
<sbb-logo protective-room="none"></sbb-logo>
</a>
</sbb-header>
(*) Technical note: Due the presence of media-query rules, it was not possible to add those rules directly
in the component's stories (see also this Storybook issue),
so they were wrapped into a style tag and added to the Storybook's configuration file named preview-head.html.
