Before I received your note, I made some changes that seemed to work.
Let me tell you what I did so that you can tell me if I did anything
incorrect...
First, I went to the site tab in the webtop and created a navigation
off of the root. So it was equivalent to the home navigation level.
I then went to the displayPage3Col.cfm and put the following code
in...
<grid:col id="nav-secondary" span="5">
<skin:genericNav navID="#application.navid.customer_home#"
id="nav-
secondary" depth="2" bActive="true" bIncludeHome="true"
bHideSecuredNodes="true">
<con:container label="#stobj.objectID#_nav-secondary" />
</grid:col>
It seems to work, but I want to do things correctly. Can you please
let me know if anything is done incorrectly?
