[[template id=plugin name=navbar author="[[TobiOetiker]]"]]

The Navbar Plugin renders a Navigation Bar into your page. It is based on code from the sidebar plug in see http://ikiwiki.info/plugins/sidebar.html for details.

The plug in looks for a page called "navbar"

This page must contain a itemized list of the form

* \[[Welcome|index]]
* \[[Management|mgmt]] 
  * \[[Leadership|mgmt/lead]]       
  * \[[Kidnapping|mgmt/kidnapping]]          
* \[[Information_Technology|it]]  
  * \[[Windows|it/windows]]
  * \[[Mobile_Communication|it/mobile]] 

This list will be turned into a folding menu structure

Include this into your templates.

<TMPL_IF NAVBAR> 
<div id="navbar">
<TMPL_VAR NAVBAR>
</div>
</TMPL_IF>

To make a nice menu, some css magic is required, but since this is required to make ikiwiki look good anyway, I won't go into details here ...
