For use in Microsoft Content Management Server, this Site Map web control, written in C#, displays channel and posting structure in a hierarchical tree that is expandable and collapsible when viewed in a IE4+ or NS6+ browsers. When viewed in NS4, the tree is fully expanded. The starting channel is configurable, so you can have multiple instances of the control in one page, rendering different portions of a site if so desired.
A VB.NET version of this control is available here.
The web control has several public properties:
StartChannelPath - Optional. Starting channel path. Default is "/channels/".
ImagePath - Optional. IIS path to the three icons. Default is "/<MCMS Site Application Name>/images/".
JavascriptPath - Mandatory. IIS path to the JavaScript file SiteMap.js. E.g.: "/<MCMS Site Application Name>/Includes/".
ExpandMap - Optional. Fully expand the channel and posting tree on first load. Valid values are true and false. Default is true.
SortChildrenBy - Optional. Display order of channels and postings in tree. Valid values are "Display Name", "Name", and "Ordinal". Default is no sorting.
ShowPostings - Optional. Display postings in the tree. Valid values are true and false. Default is false.
DefaultPostingName - Optional. When ShowPostings is true and there is default posting for the channel, specify the default posting name to hide the default postings from the tree. For example, "default".
ShowDescription - Optional. Show channel and posting descriptions in hyperlink tooltips. Valid values are true and false. Default is true.
MaxLevels - Optional. Show the specified number of channel levels only. Default is "0" which shows all channel levels. <%@ Register TagPrefix="wc1"
Namespace="QuestechSystems.WebControls"
Assembly="Web Control Library Assembly Name" %>

<wc1:SiteMap id="SiteMap" runat="server" StartChannelPath=""
JavascriptPath="/<MCMS Site Application Name>/Includes/"
ExpandMap="" SortChildrenBy="Display Name"
ShowPostings="true" DefaultPostingName="default"
ShowDescription="" MaxLevels="0">
</wc1:SiteMap>

If your like the Expand All and Collapse All links as shown in the above picture, add links to the template like:
<a href="#" onclick="actionLayer(true);return false">Expand All</a>
<a href="#" onclick="actionLayer(false);return false">Collapse All</a>
Note the media="all" attribute in the stylesheet reference. It prevents NS4 from reading it, as SiteMap.css is not compatible with NS4. If you don't care for NS4, you can also copy the content of SiteMap.css and add it into your site stylesheet.
Please check if there are any conflicts between your site stylesheet and SiteMap.css. For example, the sample site WoodgroveNet messes up the rendering quite badly.
