[TYPO3] Getting title of parent item in a menu

[Rik Willems - Actiview]

Hoi Loek,

This is a hard one. Perhaps you can have a look at the 'browse' part of
MENU.
http://typo3.org/documentation/document-library/references/doc_core_tsref/4.
1.0/view/8/11/

I'm not sure whether or not it will help you though.

Hoi Rik,

What I'm trying to achieve is this:

The page tree looks like this:

|--Page1
|    |--downloads
|    |--info
|    \--wiki
|
|--Page2
|    |--downloads
|    |--info
|    \--wiki
|

etc.

Now I want to show a menu with only pages from the 2nd level but where the
link 
texts also mention the first level:

I need links to the subpages, but the titles of those subpages don't say
much. 
Therefore I need to display the title of the level above:

   <link to info under Page1>Page1:info</link>
   <link to info under Page2>Page2:info</link>
   <link to info under Page3>Page3:info</link>

Suggestions welcome!

Thanks,
Loek
