Thanks. If you need me to write a short piece around the code that explains what it does, and how, let me know. I read your navbar howto, which is well-written and usable. However, personally I think that manually putting URLs in a TinyTable and iterating that goes against the grain, or the zen if you will, of Zope itself. Say somebody adds a page, removes a page, or changes a title -- you have to go over the TinyTable manually. On some of my pages I use another scheme which revolves around marking public documents with a "public" property and enumerating those. The code looks a bit like this: <!--#call "REQUEST.set('thistitle', title_or_id())"--> <!--#in "PARENTS[0].objectValues(['DTML Document', 'Folder'])"--> <!--#if "_.has_key('IsPublic') and IsPublic"--> <!--#if "thistitle == title_or_id()"--> <img src="/Images/activedoc.gif" width="8" height="8"><b><!--#var title_or_id--></b><br> <!--#else--> <img src="/Images/spacer.gif" width="8" height="8"><a href="<!--#var id url_quote-->"><!--#var title_or_id--></a><br> <!--#/if--> <!--#/if--> <!--#/in--> This lists all documents and folders on the current level that have an IsPublic property that is non-null, and also displays a "you are here"-type of bullet next to the active document's title. All other entries are given as links. No need to maintain a TinyTable, as the code will discover which documents are published. The drawback, of course, is that it only enumerates documents in its immediate parents: If you'd like to place site-wide links in this list, you could just iterate through PARENTS[-1] as well. All three schemes serve slightly different purposes, but deserve equal mention, I think. -- Alexander Staubo http://www.mop.no/~alex/ "In the end, we all assume room temperature." --John Maynard Keynes

Good Morning. In addition to the code you got from Alexander, there's a draft of a tutorial at
http://zdp.zope.org/test/jules/navbar_howto_html
I think we need to do two versions of the navbar tutorial -- one based on Alexander's code and one based on the TinyTable. Both clearly have different uses but are equally important.
Good luck!
