Hi Goran, all,

Your solution has its own pros and cons - the improved SEO and having
the custom navigation in the actual HTML are cons, but the duplicate
HTML and somewhat confusing layout of two headers if JavaScript is
disabled are cons. This script can only try to be a somewhat helpful
substitute for what is a very imperfect setup (CollabNet).

I agree fully that dynamically created navigation is problematic, so I
would strongly empahsize that anyone who makes use of it should
include those links in the actual HTML of their homepage as a back-up.
Of course, there is nothing to stop other NL projects from adopting a
solution similar to yours (I hope this discussion can also become an
outlet for sharing solutions), and NL projects don't have to customize
the navigation if they don't want.

Continuing on the trail of sharing solutions, I was also thinking
about a possible navigation overlay with absolute positioning - sort
of what you are doing now, but with absolute positioning - i.e., you
have a div that appears on top of the original navigation... this
would be JavaScript independent AND it would degrade gracefully. The
same could be done with the positioner. The rest, which is more
problematic and less consequential, could be handled with JS.

Regards,
Ivan.
