[TYPO3-english] HMENU as if on other page

Hi,

Well in this case I do a TS check for a predictable and specific get 
variable being greater than 0 and then if it is I unset the 
styles.content.get and instead call the pi script that renders the event 
detail. So in that case each event is then rendered on the same page as 
it's listing happened to occur.  This works here as far as displaying 
the menu, but it wouldn't work in other circumstances that are similar 
(in the past that I've had).

Also it required a lot of additional TS to still correct the menus so 
they would update correctly in some instances (depending upon if it was 
  breadcrumb menu, or if it was at certain levels of the page tree).
