You could add dynamically your subpages. I do the same for my blog articles
and portfolio projects. You can do something like this:
Zend_Registry::get('Zend_Navigation')->findBy('url', $url)-
>addPages($subPages);
Because for your view helper, Zend_Navigation should already exists in the
registry. The url depends on where your are of course. I assemble the path
with the router. In my action controller:
$url = $this->getFrontController->getRouter()->assemble(array(
'property-1' => 'default-value-1',
'property-2' => 'default-value-2'
));

You should always set a page to active, it cannot determine it automatically.
Because the breadcrumbs tries to find the deepest active page, it might be an
idea to set your homepage (at top level I guess) active by default. If no
active page is found, the breadcrumbs will show your homepage for sure.
