[opencms-dev] separating navigation entries of the same level in a page.

Guillaume,

the navigation system heirarchy works on folders, so group the files you
want to associate into a folder. When you create the folder, you can
navigation information for that folder - it will automatically then create
an index.html file. All this is in the  existing manual.

rgds,

David.
