How can I get nav like LOCALNAV from content pgs?

[rtilghman]

Just like the subject line states, I want to generate a UL/LI list for pages at a certain level (more or less just like LOCALNAV) but I want it to draw from the content pages in a site level rather than the sub-levels beneath the current level. Make sense?

For example, if I had "Section A" with four articles in it "Article 1", "Article 2", etc. I would have the following with navigation:

<ul>
<li class="activeclass">Article 1 Title</li>
<li>Article 2 Title</li>
<li>Article 3 Title</li>
<li>Article 4 Title</li>
</ul>

Is there some existing way to do this that I'm missing? Is there some easy way to make a replacement tag using the existing LOCALNAV code? I tried looking for the code that generates the LOCALNAV menu but I came up with nothing in a quick recursive FIND for the tag...

Anyone have any insight?

Thanks,
Rick

This is what I want to figure out. Basically if you have a site structure of:

About -> History -> Team -> Offices

A menu such as this: http://www.phyora.com/misc/phymenu.htm would be automatically generated, and new article links added to it when/if they were created.

I think this is what you were asking for rtilghman, if its not sorry for crashing your thread.

Any help with this would be appreciated,

just place this in frontend render

Code: Select all

<?php 
// ------------------------------------------------------------- 
if( ! ( strpos($content["all"],'{DROPDOWN')===false ) ) { 
$content["all"] = str_replace('{DROPDOWN}', '{DROPDOWN:0}', $content["all"]); 
$replace = 'build_dhtmlmenu( "$1","", 0);'; 
$content["all"] = preg_replace('/\{DROPDOWN:(\d+)\}/e', $replace, $content["all"]); 
} 
// ------------------------------------------------------------- 
?> 

and place {DROPDOWN} where you want it... then add the css settings you want to use to frontend.css
