Hello,

I'm a asp.net programmer but a newbie in the context of dotnetnuke.

I already implemented a simple skin, but I'm in need now to create a custom skin object (or a simple webcontrol)  and I need some tips to start the work.

My goal is to display a menu that shows the links to the pages under a certain one. I will be a bit more clear:

The site will be in four different languages. To separate the page trees I created a fake page under the root for each language such as english and french that

redirects to the homepage for that section

english
   Home
   offers
   contacts
french
   Home
   offers
   contacts

and so on

I use SolPartMenu for the administration (i need a full menu from root), but for the visitors I want to display a menu that shows only the first level children of each
section. So my object needs to get his anchenstor (first children of root) and get the links to his first level children.

If someone can give me a starting point I will be grateful :)

Ps: sorry if my english is not the best but I'm not english native :)
