You probably want to simply add a nav bar...use the gethtml call in the default.htm framework file.
Note that mode="nav" could be replaced with "nav2" and "nav3" for slight variations.
<gethtml data="extendedobject" mode="nav" id="/"
objtype="default"/>
OR...maybe you are beyond that point and want to create a custom navigation bar. (ie: a new .xsl
file) You would want to copy nav.xsl from the /system/currentversion/templates/default directory.
Change the path at the top from ../system.xsl to ../../system/currentversion/templates/system.xsl
and then carefully edit it in a text editor (mostly like
html) Place the new file in a directory under /templates (perhaps also called default). Then use a similar gethtml tag but use the new filename (minus the .xsl) for the mode and the new directory name as the objtype.
Note, it can be helpful to put text in the file such as "Hello World" so you know that it is actually getting loaded to start.
