texte = I can best describe a Cookiecrumb Trail by showing you one in use.. Take yahoo.com for example... http://dir.yahoo.com/Business_and_Economy/Finance_and_Investme nt/Chats_and_Forums/ As you click from section to section, the cookie then creates a path back to the root where you started from. It helps in navigation for the user, as it shows them where they are in the navigational tree of the website. On Yahoo, the Trail is on the left hand side of the screen, as soon as you go to at least one category, it starts building itself, and is above a grey box with the category name inside of it.The root is called, Home.Hope this helps, and hope someone can help me figure out how to do it with WebDNA! I know that there are ways to build one with other scripting languages ie. javascript, but I am supposed to figure one out with WebDNA.-Sherrise > On 8/1/01 5:56 PM, Sherrise E Johnson wrote: > > > I need to figure out how I can make a Cookiecrumb Trail, or a > > Breadcrumb Trail, I've seen it being referred to as both.
