Simple Sub Navigation Script
Good Afternoon,

I'm trying to put together a simple sub-navigation menu, that will display
1. If you are on the parent page: will show a list of children for that section
2. If you are on a child page: will show a list of the other children for that section
The structure of the site in this case would be similar to this:

Home

-- About the project (sub nav to display list of children

---- Towards Zero Waste (sub nav to display all children of this section as parent does)

---- Reducing Landfill (sub nav to display all children of this section as parent does)

---- Join Committee (sub nav to display all children of this section as parent does)

I can get this to work on the parent page, but obviously when I enter the sub page the navigation disappears. This is what I've got so far:
```
<nav>
  <ul id="subNavigation">
     @if(Model.Children.Where("Template != 0").Where("Visible").Count() > 0) {
          foreach(var page in Model.Children.Where("Template != 0").Where("Visible")) {
             var selected = page.Id == Model.Id ? " selected" : "";               
              <li class="[email protected](selected)"><a href="@page.Url">@page.Name</a></li>
         }
     }
 </ul>
</nav>
```
How to I taylor this script for the sub pages as well as parent page?

Hi Hefin,

You could try do something like

var parent = Model.AncestorOrSelf(3); // 3 is the Level from the Content Section that is -- Towards Zero , -- Reducing Landfill etc

 @if(parent !=null){
     foreach(var page in parent.Children.Where("umbracoNaviHide != true")){
             var selected = page.IsAncestorOrSelf(Model)? "class=selected": "";
       <li @selected><a href="@page.Url">@page.Name</a></li>
  }
}

Hope it helps
