[support] How to add Link in navigation?

[Afan Pasalic]

Hold on guys. There is no need to fight :-)

Let me try to explain better, exact.

The website I was talking about is http://kesarandcosolicitors.co.uk/.
If you click on Staff link on the top navigation you will see the 
current page (node/4).
I plan to make employees as members and the using View create this page 
better and easier to maintain. But, since I'm novice in Drupal, it will 
take some time.
The owner doesn't like the way it looks like right now and as a 
temporary solution I made http://kesarandcosolicitors.co.uk/staff.php 
page (copied Source code and add php/mysql code, doesn't have anything 
with Drupal) with more/less expander using CSS.

My question is how to add a link "Staff" (instead existing Staff) in top 
navigation and link it to the new page?

Thanks for any help.
