pageTrail component

["Miller, John" <jm...@litle.com>]

Does anyone know of a component that keeps track of the trail of pages
you've been to as to be able to traverse back. I recall seeing a thread
on this months ago, but cannot find it. We have an immediate need for
this component, so if one doesn't exist I plan on writing one over the
next few weeks (once its complete I am happy to donate it)

 

Ideally I want to component to work something like this:

 

<!-Standard Display 

Page 1 > Page 2

-->

<x:pageTrail name="page2"/>

 

<!-Custom Display

<< Back

 -->

<x:pageTrail name="page1"/>

            <t:outputText value="<< Back"/>

</x:pageTrail>

 

The component will keep a stack of viewIds to generate the back links

 

If I need to develop this component:

 

Open to any suggestions on functionality

 

Also, Question: can someone tell me the correct place to store the stack
(I am somewhat new to writing custom components)
