Background documentation iterateNavNodesInSelectedPath  Locate the document in its SAP Library structure

Iterates through the nodes (one on each level) that were selected by the user.

For example, if the user selects Content Administration  Users  Create User, the tag iterates through these three nodes.

During each iteration of the tag, a different node is exposed in the body of the tag, either via a cooperating tag that accesses the current node in the iteration or the scriptlet variable defined by the currentNavNode attribute.

For more information about the selected path, see Glossary.

Attributes

Scope

Description

<currentNavNode> attribute

Body of tag

INavigationNode object representing the current node in the iteration.

Cooperating Tags

The tag must be nested in one of the following tags:

·        iterateInitialNavNodes

·        iterateNavNodeChildren

·        iterateNavNodesInSelectedPath

·        iterateSelectedNavNodesLevel

·        launchedNavNode

·        navNode

·        navNodeParent

·        recallNavNode

·        recurseNavNodeChildren

·        selectedNavNode

Example

The following creates a breadcrumb list of links to the nodes in the selected path.

<nav:iterateNavNodesInSelectedPath>

    <nav:navNodeAnchor method="byURL"/>

    <nav:ifHasMoreIterations>

 

    ... Display separator

 

    </nav:ifHasMoreIterations>

</nav:iterateNavNodesInSelectedPath>

Example

·        iterateSelectedNavNodesLevel

·        selectedNavNode
