I'm assuming that you are talking about the styling of the navigation? If so see

Thank you for your reply, but what i need is something dynamic. I can hardcode the links with html & ezpub, but i want to have a dynamic navigation system that displays where you are and how to get back to where you were.

ie across the top of an article have Home Folder :: Subfolder 1 :: Subfolder of Subfolder :: Article whereby the information changes automatically, depending upon which page you are on in my site. ez.no has that at the top where it has
ez.no / Community / Forum / Setup & Design / Etc... what i want is very similar to that.

Hi,

This functionality is available in the form of "copy & paste some template code from either plain or standard design". Just look in the pagelayout.tpl for the plain or the standard design and you'll see that such a navigator is present there. Simply copy & paste the code into your pagelayout and you should be up and running with a fancy navigator.

Cheers.

Hey Balazs,
i thought, there were one or two page in the documentation about "breadcrumb navigation"... have they been removed?
But "copy and paste from a template" is probably better, because you can "grab" the navigation, that you saw in some demo and re-use it :)

Hi Marco

There was a page that described this which seems to have dissappeared in the documentation cleanup. (Actually found it here
http://ez.no/ez_publish/documentation/customization/custom_design/examples/creating_a_navigation_path)
Here is one way to do breadcrumbs

{section name=Path loop=$module_result.path offset=1}
{section-exclude match=$Path:item.node_id|eq($module_result.node_id)}
/ <a href={$Path:item.url|ezurl}>{$Path:item.text}</a>
{/section}

Cheers
Bruce
