   Oh, thanx... I never realised it was automatic, never tried... ;-)
How can I select in which order the collections are to be displayed
in the navibar?

   Oh, thanks... I wanted to hear that XSL was the best choise... :-)
I like learning standards over more or less proprietary things (such
as TAL), that's what I like the most about Flux CMS/Popoon too...
Most of the stuff you learn about it is likely to be useful with
other systems too later on.

And since the navibar stuff is rather automatic this should be really
easy... I might just as well take one of the Flux CMS themes as an
example.

   cheers, Simon
