Hey Folks... I intially posted this to the Extend it forum, but I think since it's heavily referring to the menu controls and such, that maybe this is a better place for it.

Got a couple of issues which I've come across with the menu in the solution I'm building... As with everything that we're doing on this project, it's a touch more out there than DNN is normally setup to handle..

Ok, so the first thing I need to do is seriously enhance is the menu.  I've got several problems with the way the menuing system works currently.  First of all, it doesn't work properly with Friendly URLS, which makes child links off of pages not function properly.  I'd even be willing to go so far as to have a completely different\new table which would contain the actual data for the menu structure\contents.  This would include links\descriptions etc, as well as security for groups, as the current system does.  I understand that this would be, in some ways, less efficient than the current mechanism, but it would have the added capability of making the menuing system do exactly what I want it to do, in whatever way I want it to be displayed, and be compliant, from the outset, with the friendly URL structure that exists within DNN.

Breadcrumb:  I need to seriously upgrade this as well, or find a third party solution that does something like what I want.  Currently, all you can do with the breadcrumb is go back to the various root levels as they are displayed.  There is no way to change where you're at, perhaps by making each level of the breadcrumb path a dropdown of the menu options which are available at that level... Also, again, the breadcrumb path works off of the menuing system inherint in DNN, and as such, it does not factor into account friendly URLS when it's generated.

Thanks,
Brian
