Subsequent interactive tease docs in a slice

  • When more than one interactive tease doc is placed in the same story doc slice field, teases for each tease doc appear in a drawer below the interactive slice that is closed by default. Verify all below (main interactive test page)
    . . . When the drawer is open, each tease renders a label matching the tease doc's instance property 'Slice label' dropdown, tease image rendered from tease doc's instance property 'Image' field and headline text rendered from the tease doc's instance property 'Headline' field.
    . . . Tease thumbnails align with other other horizontally along their bottom edges.
    . . . 'Above: ' is prepended to the tease headline for the interactive currently displayed above the drawer.
    . . . No more than 12 teases render.
    . . . Clicking a tease image or headline in the drawer replaces the slice icon/label, header, deck, content, credit and archive link above and scrolls the users back up to the top of the slice

For users and devices without Flash, rendering shows provided icon & label, header and deck with HTML message that replaces the content and credit / credit link areas. Verify all below (main interactive test page)
