Most people use CmsJspNavBuilder to create navigation menus on the fly.
Breadcrumbs
Breadcrumbs are a trail of links that indicate where you are in the hierarchy. They look like: Home >> About >> Staff
So you would know you were in the about section, looking at staff pictures.
You can create them using the CmsJspNavBuilder. Here is an example:
CmsJspActionElement element = new CmsJspActionElement(pageContext, request, response); List breadcrumbParts = element.getNavigation().getNavigationBreadCrumb(); Iterator i = breadcrumbParts.iterator(); String path = ""; while(i.hasNext()) { CmsJspNavElement el = (CmsJspNavElement)i.next(); path += el.getFileName(); if(el.isInNavigation()) out.print("<a href=\"" + path + "\">" + el.getNavText() +"</a> > "); }
