> I am looking for examples and studies on cascading navigation concepts
> on web sites, using columns to separate the hierarchical layers. Such a
> navigation combines a "breadcrumbs" / "path" with a menu.
>
>
> Example (with a monospaced font):
>
> About us   >>   Intranets >>   Employee Portals  >>   Overview
> Services   >>   Extranets >>   »Customer Portals >>   »Technical Data
> »Solutions >>   »Portals  >>   Process Portals   >>
>                Mobile    >>
>
>
> So the (breadcrumbs) path in this would be
> Solutions > Portals > Customer Portals > Technical Data
> with the alternative options still visible for each selected layer
>
> I found the pattern in just one library, at welie.com:
> http://www.welie.com/patterns/showPattern.php?patternID=trail-menu
>
>
> Personally I like this concept, but there aren't much sites using it.
> I found only one study form a German student implying it performs very
> well compared to other (dropdown, tree, ...) concepts in terms of
> clarity.
>
> But it could also turn out as misleading if the users do not understand
> the "layering" concept.
>
> Do you know sites using this kind of menu design, or (even better) other
> resources about its performance?
>
