Ben - Where can I get more information, and possibly code for the genericNav function ? I think it would be helpful to see the code behind something like the nzsteel sites navigation to try and work backwards from it. A quick search on Google for genericNav Farcry yields nothing at all.
I will start searching through the farcry doco again now.

Are you after plug and play drop-down menus, or simply code to build nested lists? Daemon's legendary genericNav was used to great effect on http://www.nzsteel.co.nz/nz/go/products/colorsteel/colorsteel-endura genericNav easily builds the nested lists for - utility menu - primary navigation drop-down menus (using the Suckerfish method) - secondary navigation (accordion style) - footer links Farcry's standard Tree functions (such as getChildren) are used to get the data, then the mark-up generator builds the list levels. With all presentation styling handled by CSS, the result is lightweight, clean and valid xhtml mark-up. Is this the sort of thing people want code for?
