[TYPO3] HMENU/TMENU: 2 levels in 1 menu?

[Tyler Kraft]

why not just give use your tree structure and then ask how to do it as a 
menu...

-home
   -page 1
   -page 2
      -subpage 2.1
      -subpage 2.2
      -subpage 2.3
   -page 3
   -page 4
      -subpage 4.1
      -subpage 4.2
   -page 5


So lets assume you want to show page 2 and all its sub pages in one 
menu? But do you always want to show that same menu or does it change 
depending on if your in section 2 or 3 or 4? and is the menu always open 
or only when your ona  page in the rootline of page 2?
