[opencms-dev] Opencms 6 Navigation Issue...

[Claus Priisholm]

There is a getNavigationForFolder("/department") which gives you the 
list of navigation elements inside the folder, but maybe you are looking 
for the navigation info for the folder itself?
In that case you can use it on the parent folder ("/") and perhaps use a 
special property on the departsments to set them apart from other 
entries at the root level. Or you can simply use the 
getNavigationForResource("/department") to get the navigation element 
for that specific folder (and the other three hardcoded folders) - in 
relation to your code example you could then add the elements to a list 
and basically do exactly as you do in your code (from the Iterator 
i=list.iterator and on)
