Well let me give you a little better explanation.
initially a page is loaded... let's say the home page. from there
people use the main navigation. when a link is clicked i get the page
through ajax.update with fancy fades and stuff.
all is good because that nav exists on every page so the elements are
always present. however, on one of the 'pages' that i retrieve via
ajax there is a sub nav. so now i have all these new elements in which
i want to do the same thing as i did the main nav. click on link and
content is replaced.
did that make sense?
