Sorry for the confusion Paul....

The "custom admin" I am talking about is in the ADMIN tool.  In the custom
admin tab.  The pages do exist under a nav node - in Utility - but are
accessed directly with their objectid at present (I think - not at work to
check).

The code itself has been written as a FarCry dmInclude.  So when we set up
our custom admin tabs we actually call index.cfm with an objectid and
display that in the right side admin tab (in fact we are also using the same
mechanism to display more comprehensive information in the left hand side as
well).  This was achieved when we added those additional attributes to the
customadmin.xml file.

So now what we want to avoid is the context menu popping up in these cases
(because you are logged in to the ADMIN tool, it thinks you have "admin"
rights and displays the context menu).  Adding something into the
permissions for navigation I dont think will work.  Because you WANT access
to the object - but you just dont want the context menu to appear for ANYONE
(in this instance - because it is not really part of the site but part of
the admin area).

The variable you suggest would work perfectly well as we can simply create
an alternative index.cfm (maybe indexAdmin.cfm) that sets the flag so the
context menu doesn't display.  Then everything else just operates like the
rest of the site.

Hope that makes sense now.


Regards,
Gary
