In Drupal 6 this would have scalability problems due to the way menu<br>
items are stored/retrieved. I think the solution that path_redirect<br>
takes is functionally the same and more scalable.<br></blockquote><div><br>I agree if we take the same approach as with the no-cache drupal 5 version, but for drupal 6 menu system we can still make this solution viable. The bookmarks are configured via a settings form and when saved we can update and refresh the menu cache once only. But ymmv! <br>
