more wiki stuff: breadcrumb navigation

hey guys,

If this is a duplicate I apologize. I thought I wrote about this last night, but maybe I closed my browser window without hitting submit. Hmmm.

I have another newlisp wiki template and style ready to go. I love the ease with which I can modify newlisp wiki! The template I used is the same one I have on my perpetualnewbie site. I found it here. It's a nice simple thing I modified just a little.

I'd like some help getting the breadcrumb navigation bar to correctly follow the current page without having to hard code the link in the source. I may populate a directory with lots of wikis, so I'd like to know where I am with a glance.

I parsed (real-path) as a start, but I don't think it's a good solution. Here's a link to the wiki and to the changed files:

link removed. silly kids.

Any other input would be appreciated, too. Thanks!

That looks fine to me... Is it not a good solution technically or visually...? Perhaps the space that's hyperlinked is a bit confusing but otherwise it seems to work fine.

given my level of technical expertise, I feel sure the way I'm doing it is a kludge. I can take care of the space, but I actually typed in "sitename.com" by hand, and I left out one directory level. I'll mess with it some more.

Is there a (real-path) for web addresses? Anybody want to write one?
:-)
