Thanks for the reply Gary -- Bob's suggestion did the trick, so you
might not need the following answers now:

Well, as it tells you to in the walkthrough, I added this code:

 <a href="/index.cfm?objectid=#application.navid.contact#">Contact
us</a>

to dmFooter.cfm, so that in every page you get a link to the contact
form (as it also says to specify "contact" as the navalias for that
page).

I guess you're talking about adding navigation nodes and then HTML
objects to the main navigation tree... right? If so, yeah, adding pages
like that works fine and they get displayed fine in the navbar (except
the walkthrough uses the Utility menu, so I guess that's why they tell
you to manually add a link via the navalias).

Useful to know.. ta.

Umm, I'm guessing "display routine" means which "Template"? If so, I
just copied the image in the walkthrough, which used "displayDefault".


> Also, does the template work OK without you adding the include object?
> Meaning, does it work OK to display a dmHTML object ?

Yeah, adding HTML pages work fine.
