  OK...next how do I get rid of the opencms symbol that is part of the 'body' in the attached jpg?

      I ran into the same problem and solved it by using one of the other property fields (Navinfo I think) as a menu level indicator. I then added a bit of extra code (BTW - I'm not a programmer so any errors are strictly my own or the website where I stole the bits of code from :-) ) to the process that creates the menus as follows:

  while (i.hasNext()) 
 {
  CmsJspNavElement ne = (CmsJspNavElement)i.next();

    String resource_name = ne.getResourceName();
  String menu_level = ne.getInfo();
  if (menu_level == null)
  {
   menu_level = "9";
  }

  // if we have a directory then make a new menu
  if ((resource_name.charAt(resource_name.length() - 1) == '/') && (menu_level.equals("1")))
  {
   if ((menu_open) && (menu_level.equals("1")))
   { 
    out.println(MenuEnd());
    ++menu_id;
    cell_id = 1;
    menu_bar += MenuBarDivider();
   }
   out.println(MenuStart(menu_id));
   menu_open = true;
   menu_bar += MenuBarEntry(menu_id, ne.getNavText());
  }
  else // otherwise just add the menu entry
  {
   if ((menu_open) && (menu_level.equals("2")))
   {
    out.println(MenuItem(ne.getNavText(), menu_id, cms.link(ne.getResourceName()), cell_id));
    ++cell_id;
   }
  }
 }

  That now gives me the two layers of menu - if navinfo contains 1 then it is a top-level menu item and if it contains 2 then it appears in the drop-down.

  Hope this helps..

  Cheers,
  Phil.

Subject: Re: [opencms-dev] Opencms Navigation Modification

Hi,
I'm looking for a similar thing:
I want to see all 1st level navigation entries and the ones that are in the actual opened folder on the second level.
Using the getNavigationForFolder I can get the top level or all sublevel. 
But how can I get only the actual sublevel when inside?

And: how can I identify that I am on the index.html of a subfolder?
With navi.getResourceName().equals(filename)) I can verify it for other documents but that does not work for the index.html.
Any ideas or best practices?

Thanks in advance!
 Frank

Eg this will create
a bread crumb trail:

<%
{
        Iterator iter = navBuilder.getNavigationBreadCrumb().iterator();
        iter.next();
        out.write("<a href=\"" + cms.link ("/") + "\">Home</a> ");
        while (iter.hasNext()) {
                CmsJspNavElement nav = (CmsJspNavElement)iter.next();
                out.write(" > <a href=\"" + cms.link(nav.getResourceName()) +
"\">" + nav.getNavText() + "</a> ");
        }
}
%>

Also remember that you can style LI tags any way you want with CSS --
I've even seen UL/LI being used to create horizantal tabs.
