Is there a way to unlink the current page in a menu?
I'm sure this must have come up before but I haven't found a relevant topic yet.
As usability maven Jakob Nielsen points out, "Active links to current pages cause three problems:
* If they click it, a link leading to the current page is an utter waste of users' time.
* Worse, such links cause users to doubt whether they're really at the location they think they're at.
* Worst of all, if users do follow these no-op links they'll be confused as to their new location, particularly if the page is scrolled back to the top."
So, any hints on how to dynamically modify a menu to unlink the current page? Can it be done with Drupal's built in menu system, or do you need to craft your own menu module? Any help much appreciated. Thanks!!!
