Dynamic navigation for small catalogs
If you have a small product catalog and are not concerned about performance issues, you could use a different type of navigation scripts, which generates category navigation dynamically by querying the store database.
The following scripts were used in older versions of ProductCart, and dynamically retrieve category information from the database. They are not recommended for busy stores or stores with a substantial amount of categories as it can negatively impact performance. They may also not be fully compatible with the latest versions of ProductCart (but a knowledgeable programmer could certainly tweak the code to make it work properly with any ProductCart version).
