Yeah, but basically everything else works fine.

Ps. Arturo, can you clarify this a bit more please:
redesign so that the user
can easily distinguish amongst pages?
For example: Say you have three pages named "Home" but the path to
them are distinct such that
Home1's path is http://ROOT/~u1/HOME
Home2's path is http://ROOT/~u2/HOME
Home3's path is http://ROOT/~admin/HOME
then maybe you can display distinct paths?
A different tack at explaining: I'm using your system. I see a
popdown list and it has 3 "Homes"
in it. How am I to know which one I should look at/edit/etc? Well
then I should eliminate the dups.
OK. So, now we eliminate the duplicates from the popdown list. So, I
pick the one "Home" and then
I must get a page that shows me the three potential "Homes" I could
work with? Or am I only supposed
to be working with one? If that's the case then how come I could see
3 before?
In other words, there's got to be something that distinguishes these
duplicate homes.
Yes, for the most part the status attribute, this attribute has to be
unique I'll validate it (not done yet) so that you can't have two
navPageNames marked 01 for example... one would have to be 01 the
other 02, their contents in the navPageContent attribute will then
list on the web page in that order if their visibility is set to "on".
if the visibility is set to off the item won't show but the objects
will still obviously list in a sorted order. So if there was a "Home"
with a status of 03 (visibility on), but the Home page with status
02's visibility was off, "Home" status 03 would show it's content next
in the page.
How about having the popup list show
01 - Home
03 - Home
...
instead of just Home?
Your displayString binding could be something like
String displayStringForNavPage() {
return Integer.toString(navPage.status()) + " - " + navPage.name();
}
I think you would also need something like
NSArray navPagesArray = EOUtilities.objectsMatchingKeyAndValue(ec,
"NavPage", "visibility", "on");
or somesuch.
