The menu should look the same regardless of what folder the user is
looking at. And yes Administrative should still be available to the
users.


Thank you for your help.
Dave.

David,

I will take a look at this now, (it helps us quite a bit when you supply

the psml structure and what you want to see in the menu). I noticed a
typo below with the "depth" attribute name, but I dont think you are
looking for the whole tree to appear in the menu anyway! Given what you
are asking for here, I may have misled you earlier thinking you wanted
something more complex/selective. No, this should not be difficult at
all!

A few clarifications. Do you want the menu to always look like you
described as you navigate the site or did you want it to change to show
other folders/pages at any point? I see below that you are adding in
'/Administrative' for the admin user, so I assume you want that to show
in addition when the admin user is logged in.

Let me know. Will post back a menu definition shortly when I have
verified that it works.

Randy
