Apache::NavBarDD is a dynamic double-decker (two level) Navigation Bar.

SYNOPSIS

use Apache::NavBarDD;
$Apache::NavBarDD::myBar = Apache::NavBarDD->new;

The NavBarDD package provides a dynamic navigation bar along the lines of the NavBar module described in Lincoln Stein's and Doug MacEachern's "Writing Apache Modules with Perl and C". It goes one step further in allowing double-decker (two-level) navigation bars, where the selection in the first level (the master bar) determines the contents of the second level (the vassal bar).

The module provides an object oriented API to allow for easy customisation. The navigation bar is an object that must be created prior to use, for example in a server start-up file, according to the contents of a special configuration file.

The main features of the module are:

Allows both single and two level navigation bars.
It can be used to endow existing HTML pages with a navigation bar, or it can be called from mod_perl modules.
Provides a full object oriented interface.

Requirements:
Perl
