Hi Markus,
The second way is how I've tried to do it. I'm assuming the logic you
mention should be in the navigation template, but I don't know how
you'd use a variable without using some ASP which gets processed after
render tags.
What I've tried doing is something like (selected template):
<reddot:cms>
<if>
<query valuea="Context:CurrentDepth" operator="lt"
valueb="Context:CurrentPage.Elements.GetElement
(stf_StartNavigationLevel).Value">
<htmltext>
<navigation:nextlevel>
</htmltext>
</query>
<query type="else">
<htmltext>
<li class="current-page">
<a id="_<%!! Context:CurrentIndex.Id !!%>"
href="<%!!
Context:CurrentIndex.GetUrl() !!%>"><%!!
Context:CurrentIndex.Headline !!%></a>
</li>
</htmltext>
<if>
<query valuea="Context:CurrentIndex.HasChildren()"
operator="==" valueb="Bool:True">
<htmltext>
<li class="section-sub">
<ul>
<navigation:nextlevel>
</ul>
</li>
</htmltext>
</query>
</if>
</query>
</if>
</reddot:cms>
I can't seem to get an integer from stf_StartNavigationLevel. In
another post in the group, Context:Int.Parse
(CurrentPage.Elements.GetElement(stf_StartNavigationLevel).value) was
suggested but didn't work.
