[Typo3] help with directory structure and menu items

Mon Aug 8 21:26:47 CEST 2005

Okay, Fixed the first problem
---> temp.menu_footer.special.value = 23, 22, 21

should have been set to the directory instead of a list of pages.
---> temp.menu_footer.special.value = 24

-------------------
Now still need to know how to insert a static link to the home page - maybe 
I can do it with a special menu?

Also, I'm looking for a way to separate menu items by a | (vertical bar). 
(not a wrap, but a separator?)
