What is the best practices for allowing a user to add a new page to a site from a template. How does the user add the page to navigation, say CSS menu on banner?
Thanks for suggestions on this.

In most cases its not a good idea to give users access to modify navigation.
They may add something which is too long, or screw up the navigation scripts,
if you use any.
If you want someone other than yourself to be able to modify the navigation,
I'd suggest using suckerfish dropdown menu, because its really just a HTML
bulleted list, (which uses only only a small bit of javascript and CSS) and you
can put it by itself inside of a file, and allow one "special" user to know
where this file is at.
This way, if anyone has a request for a new menu item to be in the nav, they
can go to thios user and he can add it. This special nav page, will act like a
web page because its editable inside Contribute, however it will notcontain
tags like <html>, <head>, or <body>... yes, ONLY the navigation HTML code,
because its an include.

thanks for the reply Mike. The CSS menus seem the way to go. In principal I
agree with you about the nav but the bottom line is users are now able to
create new pages and need to be able hook them up. I expect in future
incarnations of Contribute there will be some support for modifying menus in
'editableregions' so users don't have to que up with IS staff to get a stoopid
page added. Maybe someone can develop an extension that uses dialogs to modify
menus instead of dropping users into html.
