structure/navigation question

Hi i'm using the CSS navigation list with this reptag: {NAV_LIST_ALL}

The site can be viewed here: http://www.invenso.com/groenschooltje/index.php
And my article structure here: http://www.runningman.be/dump/structure.gif

I have what I hope is quite an obvious problem, because I think what I want to do is fairly standard website-wise but haven't found a solution so far.

The first thing I noticed after I made my structure and placed a menu was that the site index wasnt included in this menu I quickly solved this by adding a "child" to my index (Startpagina) and added a redirection to the startpage (Homepagina)
This all seemed ok at first because the Index page showed up in my menu as i wanted however with it being a redirect it confuses the menu a bit and doesnt show up as active. Is there any kind of structural trick that will get me around this problem, have I built my site up correctly so far?

I want my structure to be:

- Index
- Page
- Page
- Page

And not:

- Index
-- Page
-- Page
-- Page
-- Page


Thanks in advance

After giving it some more thought I came up with the idea I could setup a redirect on the root to point to my homepage (instead of the other way round)

Is this an ok way to work?

Hi frenzal,

- Index
-- Page
-- Page
-- Page
-- Page

Thats right.

But that is better:

site structure:
- Index (hidden redirect to Home)
-- Home
-- Page
-- Page
-- Page
-- Page

If your site ist going life, please "redirect to Home" like this http://www.phpwcms.de/forum/viewtopic.php?t=10613
