Hi,

it's easiest to use getSiteNavigation:

String subsite = "/sites/whatever/";
CmsJspActionElement cms = new CmsJspActionElement(pageContext, request,
response);
Iterator iter = cms.getNavigation().getSiteNavigation(cms.getCmsObject(),
subsite, -1).iterator(); 

Note that:
1) the subsite cannot be "/" or you will get an empty list back for some
reason
2) the subsite MUST end with "/" or you will get an empty list back for some
reason

You can find full code for a sitemap using <ul> lists on
