Pilot is a simple tool that generates floating menus of a site's folder structure and content, callable by double clicking ZMI's pages. Aimed to CMF portals, I've been using this helpful aid since a long while ago, and now I'd like to share it with the community. I'm currently using it to quickly reach folders, methods, favorites and recent objects, but it can be hacked to become a standard navigational aid for the CMF.
Problem is that it uses a javascript menu that is licensed, but it's likely that now there are some other free ones than can be used instead. If anyone knows of any reliable, please let me know so that I can perform the changes and then release the code. More details at the screenshots page.

* blink * Wow. This looks really, really cool. I wish I'd thought of it. I did recently spend some time looking for good, free DHTML menus and couldn't find any that were both good and free. However, many offered free use for free products so you might be able to do things I couldn't. Twin helix is my favorite. It's very configurable and the author knows what's he's doing. Check out his DOM browser for a real treat. http://www.twinhelix.com/dynamic.html Another one that might be free-ish from a Dutch cat breeder: http://www.burmees.nl/menu/menus.htm There is also the monster at webreference which you've probably seen but that one definitely costs money.
