you may not need anything fancy like a class for regular breadcrumbs or these BreadcrumbsExtreme™ that you describe. i usually do simple breadcrumbs with a simple function. for the extreme version, just store an array of recently viewed pages in a session variable, and parse this array when displaying each page.

Good answer, I think thats what they were looking for but just in case: Most of the breadcrumb classes out there (at least the ones that showed up in an initial google search) use either the existing directory/file structure or a hard-coded array of your site structure to create the breadcrumbs. What about on non-structured sites like Wikis? For example, on DokuWiki, it keeps track of your last 4-5 clicks in a "breadcrumb" trail on the top of the page. Amazon.com <http://Amazon.com>'s "recently viewed pages" is another good example (though probably patented ;)) What are these kind of breadcrumbs called and which classes would you recommend using to implement them?

Hi, I been wondering the best way to make the level browsing, I mean, those links up in page which tell you the position you are, and make you able to return sections back, keeping some kind of logic of where you are. I been used the url vars to do this but I arrive some point where there are coincidences and it loose sense, it jumps to other section, where indeed have to, but not where it logically should. any suggestions? thank :) -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
