Normally we consider secondary navigation to be a more context specific branch of somewhere under the home. ie. it shows detail of the pages in the location of the page you are currently viewing as opposed to primary navigation that shows only navigation under the home page.
There is an example of this sort of navigation in the sidebar in the two and three column templates of the mollio sample site. Another sort of navigation we call utility or global navigation -- this can be structured separate to the home branch -- store it in something like "Utility" under the root and at the same level of Home in the tree. The practical reason for this is you don't want this navigation to appear in primary nav. So utility navs are things like the global header nav or a footer nav.. they typically are the same throughout the site and link to things like contact, search, privacy, sitemap and so on. -- geoff http://www.daemon.com.au/ On 04/03/2010, at 8:49 AM, Activant wrote: > 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.
