PFMaBiSmAd Posted March 4, 2009 Share Posted March 4, 2009 Edit: longer version of above ^^^ The name refers to the Hansel and Gretel story where they left a trail of breadcrumbs to find there way out of the forest. When used with respect to "navigation" in an electronic document or on a web page, they mean a list of links that show the document path you are at and which you can click on any point to take you back to a previous level. This is a breadcrumb that the forum built for the current page - PHP Freaks Forums > PHP Coding > PHP Help > Post reply ( Re: What is the meaning of this term?
