There are many options available to you when thinking about what type of navigation component to use for your DotNetNuke web site. What does a navigation component provide? To put it simply, navigation providers construct and display the hierarchical navigation menus that display on your site. This might include a horizontal navigation menu, a vertical navigation menu, or any combination of the two. For example, some sites lend themselves to having a horizontal navigation menu that reflects the entire site, while a vertical navigation menu provides menu items for the current portion or section of the web site.
