Hi, this is my 2nd and last naive question for the day. Based on the observation that Rails addresses so many issues and handles them so well, I was a little surprised that it seems that Rails doesn''t appear to have some sort of built-in support for constructing navigational menus. I''m not sure what I would expect that support to do; but, I''d just like to know if there are Rails tools for building navigational menus so that I don''t go off doing my own thing and ignoring capabilities that Rails provides. I''ve got a couple of Rails books and neither of them mention anything about support for building navigational menus. Thanks for any input. ... doug --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

hi, take a look at goldberg. It''s a generator for rails which gives you nice page layout, configurable menus and user/role support... http://goldberg.240gl.org/ Regards, Timo --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

However, i would like to point for your interest to the link_to_unless_current helper; http://api.rubyonrails.org/classes/ActionView/Helpers/UrlHelper.html#M000489 One more thing that you might be interested in would be the tabnav thingy; http://blog.seesaw.it/articles/2006/07/23/the-easiest-way-to-add-tabbed-navigation-to-your-rails-app --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
