Re: 2010 CUs and SPs
Hi Paul. On our scripted SP2010 build we slipstream just the SPS SP1 and the SPS August 2011 CU. Also; Be aware that the SharePoint Server 2010 CU contains the SharePoint Foundation CU. And the SharePoint Server 2010 with Project Server CU contains Project Server CU, SharePoint Server CU and SharePoint Foundation CU. That means only one package has to be installed for the SharePoint 2010 product family. http://blogs.technet.com/b/stefan_gossner/archive/2011/12/14/december-2011-cu-for-sharepoint-2010-has-been-released.aspx . -Dan.

Site definition and a stapled feature's scope
Hi. I have a site definition based on the blank intranet definition. It will be used to create a SPWeb. I also have a feature scoped to the site collection that I'd like to staple to my templates activation. Is it correct that I can't activate a cross scoped feature through a feature stapler?

Re: SP2010 Main Navigation problems - Keyboard accessibility and Flyouts [SEC=UNCLASSIFIED]
Hi Kathleen. 1. You can also use the css selector :focus to target the focussed element in the style sheet. 2. In 2010 there is a bit of js that sets the page hieght so it plays nice with the ribbon control. This could be a reason for your menu problems. This might be useful, http://kyleschaeffer.com/sharepoint/sharepoint-2010-scrolling/. HTH.

When pressing the TAB key, if you watch the status bar at the bottom of the window, you can see that the URL is changing and it is working through the menu system, but there's no visual way of knowing that this is happening on the menu bar. In SP2007 this wasn't a problem. ** ** Have you enabled Accessibility mode? If so, is the tab order still not working through the topnav? ** ** 2) Menu flyouts do not centre themselves vertically on the screen. For example, if you roll over the bottom link on the navigation menu and it has a corresponding flyout, and if this flyout contains a long-ish set of links, the flyout will extend itself over the bottom of the screen, making it impossible for the user to access those links. In SP2007, the flyouts automatically re-positioned themselves to move up the screen in a situation like this, making all links accessible. ** ** That would be a considerably large menu! As a workaround you could add a minimum-height and additional margin to the bottom of the placeholder to overcome this.

Hey Paul.
I think you can test the current web title with;

Re: suggestions to solve a banner problem
2 options. Add some javascript on the master page to check the url and either hide/display the banner element. https://developer.mozilla.org/en/DOM/window.location Or again, have the banner element in the master page, hide it by default in your custom.css and use a content editor web part to override the display property when needed. http://www.endusersharepoint.com/2010/01/29/style-a-page-using-the-content-editor-web-part-and-css/ http://www.endusersharepoint.com/2010/01/29/style-a-page-using-the-content-editor-web-part-and-css/Both ways you can leave the element in the master page and not worry about the other pages.

I can create a custom master page, but I do not want this master page used on any new subsites created.
