DB_NestedSet with HTML Menu - Can I use URL filename without ID?

Hi, I am using: DB_NestedSet 1.3.6 HTML_Menu 2.1.3 These are the files that I'm utilising: require_once('HTML/Menu.php'); require_once('DB/NestedSet.php'); require_once('DB/NestedSet/Output.php'); require_once('DB/NestedSet/Menu.php'); require_once ('HTML/Menu/DirectTreeRenderer.php'); I've been following this and a couple of other tutorials: http://jystewart.net/process/2005/03/a-lengthier-introduction-to-db_nestedset/ http://trac.seagullproject.org/wiki/Howto/Navigation/HtmlMenu The problem is that the majority of these tutorials seem to rely on the node id being in the url in order to be able to use the PickNode function to return the page's content. However I've been experimenting and have failed to find a method whereby I can just make reference to the $node['name'] for example and not the ID. JYStewart goes partly there, but instead of the 'option' directory name that Stewart uses I'm looking to include the root name. So if the $node['level'] is equal to 1 it displays the $node['name'] in the URL. eg. http://www.domain.com/root/ or if the $node['level'] is greater than 1 it displays the $node['name'] as the filename plus it's root name as the 'directory'. I want to keep the url down to this depth and not include subnodes etc. eg. http://www.domain.com/root/leaf.htm However I've been struggling with the detail/coding for this. So advice would be appreciated on this. Once the links are displayed correctly there's the important issue of returning the $node[id'] based on the filename from the url, so that the ID can be given to the PickNode function. How can I carry the above out? Is it possible? Due to the lack of documentation I've looked through the relevent pear files but unless I've missed something there doesn't seem to be a function whereby I can input the filename or similar?? Is there an option I can use that has already been coded into the HTML MENU files for example, or do I have to change the code within these files at some point?
