Actuall, Geoff's method  is perfect!   "2. pass the navigational information to the news object on the URL.  >> By passing the parent's nav id on the URL you can easily use this to >> construct a breadcrumb that is specific to the user's clickstream >> (their path through the site).  If the nav id can't be resolved >> default to home page." -- Regards, Michael J.

Michael, I look forward to seeing you mod. Can you tell us a little more about where it will "put" the content items. As i see it there are two approaches, first the content item is shown as a child of the page it was clicked on. Second, the content is associated with a page in the tree - when the content is clicked on from anywhere, then the breadcrumb shown reflects the associated page. I think the second option is more intuitive, as it always shows the content item in the same path back to home, no matter where it is clicked from.. I did a quick mod to achieve this by creating categories for a magazine site. Each content item is then assigned to a category. When the content item is displayed the the category is checked and the appropriate navid is use to create the breadcrumb. It aint pretty but it works for now, until a better solution comes along.
