Problem with Collaboration Navigation in Custom Framework (Tasks)

Question

Hi,
I developed a custom frameworkpage with DTN using the Navigation Taglibrary. (Navigation-Method: byURL)
I also included the navigation within collaboration rooms.
My problem is now:
When I navigate to "Tasks" and then click on one of the tasks related to that room, the task appears, but the navigation context is gone (empty DTN, none of the Top-Level nodes is selected..)
Even when I try to add the navigationContext of the "Task"-Node to the url, it does not work. (a navigation context is only displayed if the context points to a non-collaboration navigation node)
Does anyone have the same problem and solved this somehow?
Greetings,
Michael Baginski

Hi Mike,
If you create a custom component then nothing is working "out-of-the-box"
But the following links could help you in building your own custom nav module with support for Nav-Zoom:

Generic Tag Lib:

You can take the sap portal light dtn and start 'stripping' it until you have something you can work with.
This helps you to figure how the tag-libs work and can help you create your custom module from scratch eventual.
Ofcours you should never overwrite SAP components so if you redeploy do it in your customer namespace (com.<customername>.<application>).
Good Luck,
