This is how we do our 'children list':
<ul>
<reddot:cms>
<foreach itemname="SubIndex"
object="Context:CurrentIndex.SubIndexes" countername="counter">
<if>
<query valuea="Store:counter" operator="=="
valueb="Int:0">
<htmltext><li class="first"></htmltext>
</query>
<query type="else">
<htmltext><li></htmltext>
</query>
</if>
<htmltext><a href="<%!! Store:SubIndex.GetUrl() !!
%>"></htmltext>
<if>
<query
valuea="Store:SubIndex.Page.Elements.GetElement(stf_page_title).Value"
operator="==" valueb="Escape:Null">
<htmltext>This page needs a title!</htmltext>
</query>
<query type="else">
<htmltext><%!!
Store:SubIndex.Page.Elements.GetElement(stf_page_title).Value!!%></
htmltext>
</query>
</if>
<htmltext></a></li></htmltext>
</foreach>
</reddot:cms>
</ul>
It puts a class on the first list item and grabs the placeholder of
stf_page_title if it has one, otherwise it gives a friendly reminder
to the user to fill the title in!
Anyway, hopefully this will be of help too, I know what a pain NavMan
can be sometimes, I still haven't got my head around it!
