Just checking my understanding of the purpose of the functions mentioned in this thread.
1. Is the purpose to have multiple sitetrees based on selection criteria (possibly fields within documents)? 2. Or is the purpose to have Category nodes in the navigation? A Category node opens to display more Resources in the navigation without changing the current page. #1 is handled in 1.3, although the administration functions for editing structures have not been implemented yet. #2 could be added easily to 1.3, but I had not designed for it because experience/research suggests people expect a new page to open when clicking navigation entries. Allowing some entries to expand menus without changing the current page leads to an inconsistent experience. I have been involved with many designs including this functionality; all removed this functionality later due to confusion and complaints. solprovider On 3/3/08, Andreas Hartmann <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi Jürgen, > Jürgen Ragaller schrieb: > > Hi Andreas > > Over the weekend I was working on a web-sitemap module and came across a > > similar problem: > > > > The goal is to hide documents from the sitemap using a "visible in > > sitemap (true | false)" metadata field. > > > > Now I am thinking about using the possibiliy to call lenyas java method > > to read metadata from the within the xsl that builds the web-sitemap > > (using xalans way to call java) - uuid / pub-id and area are known when > > walking through the sitetree xml so it should work... > > I guess this will be quite difficult, since you can't access the current > session and document factory from the XSLT.
