Hi Emily, Kim, Jian and Casey,

Thanks for the replies!


Emily - The project is being built in MS 9 because that's what the
server (running a few other projects) has. The plan is to upgrade to
10.1 this year. Updating training documentation, how-to videos and
providing support to less self-sufficient users is the primary barrier
to the upgrade.


Kim - There's a requirement for a breadcrumb and ideally a sitemap, so
I would need to stick with one navigation area. I've experimented
using a foreach loop in the navigation template to go through the
PathArray of the LastIndex. I can see how it could work, except when
there are multiple flagged pages within the path.

I don't know if there is a way to use or fake variables. IE: Loop
through the path and find the level of the last flagged page, set that
as a variable value, then if the currentLevel in the navigation
template is less than the variable's value, don't render anything and
proceed to the nextLevel.


Jian - Generating the navigation from the sitemap is an interesting
idea and not something I would have thought of. I would be hesitant to
render the navigation client-side though, as some search engines/bots
and older screen readers may not execute javascript. Parsing the
sitemap XML using ASP would work, but there's probably a performance
hit in SmartEdit while doing so.


Casey - The missing 'Quality and Safety' and 'Sales and Marketing' was
an oversight on my part, and should be displayed while on the
Innovation page.  In your case, are you using levels or flags on the
page like Kim suggested?


Thanks again!
