SiteMapProvider Question

Hi,

I have implemented a working SiteMapProvider as shown on an msdn page:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/libr...34(VS.80).aspx

My question is: Can I make the TreeView that uses a SiteMapProvider show the
heirarchy from the current node down, instead of from the root?

My scenario is that I have a website with several thousand folders, each
folder containing less than 100 pages. What I would like is that if you are
looking at Default.aspx in a folder that's 1 or more levels down, it would
list the pages in that folder, plus it will list the folders directly below
it with their pages like this:

page1.aspx
page2.aspx
+Folder1
page1.aspx
page2.aspx
+Folder2
page1.aspx
page2.aspx

It may be that a SiteMapProvider is the wrong thing for this sort of
application, but I haven't yet located that information.

Thanks,
Steve

Hi,

you can use SiteMapDatasour ce for this scenario. It has property
StartingNodeUrl where you can set starting node. Look for more info in
msdn library.

All, OK, so I'm working on a template for our new ASP.NET applications. Part of this, includes using the new menu and breadcrumbs control in ASP.NET 2.0 (I'm using beta 2). I put the hierarchy of the applications and navigation in a database, and am able to pull that into the app by inheriting StaticSiteMapProvider. So that's set and works great.

Hi, I have written a custom SiteMapProvider to retrieve site map data from a SQL Server database table. It works fine when used as the data source for a Menu control, so I am confident that all the nodes are being correctly populated. However, when used with a TreeView control, only the first node displays. Any suggestions on why this might be the case? Thanks.

hello all, I am trying to create a custom site map provider and since my site map is very huge, I am loading the required nodes when the CurrentNode property is called..

I've got a pretty basic sitemap setup, but am getting a runtime error: "The SiteMapProvider 'MySiteMap' cannot be found." This occurs only when I access my website under IIS 5.1. When I run my app under the debugger (localhost:1946) I have no problem. I thought of trying IIS6.0, but am running XP, so can't upgrade to 6.0. Any ideas? my web.config relevant lines <siteMap> <providers>

Is it a problem to attach Non-static site map providers under one that inherits from StaticSiteMapProvider ? We are implementing a custom site map provider for a website that is being converted to ASP.NET 2.0. The conversion is going well because some of the features, like Master Pages and Site Maps, of ASP.NET 2.0 allow us to migrate away from a "top frame" style of navigation to a standard dynamic cascading top menu with minimal...

I still have one question open -- is there a way to get the TreeView to show me only the current node and child nodes of the current node? Right now it shows me the entire navigation heirarchy, starting with the root node from the SiteMapProvider, no matter which page in the heirarchy I'm currently on. Thanks, Steve
