Off course you can use a complete template parsing method, but in this case I'd rather use something in the middle: easy to use and understand functions, that can save designers some work.
"Where do you get 100 different methods to build a menu from?"
I'm not just talking about building a simple menu. Look at some of the examples I posted in my first post. Things that come to mind:
- complete menu tree
- subpages of the current page
- next/ previous sibling page
- number of users online
- list of bread crumbs
And I'm sure that along the way I will add more. So you're right. At this point I might not have 100 methods. But I anticipate to be including more of these 'helper' functions. Then to me it seems wrong to be executing all of them, if most of them won't be used in a particular page.
