I'm using menu breadcrumb module, however that shouldn't matter. I'd like to remove the trailing > from the breadcrumb trail and am assuming there's a way to with a hook function in my template.php file or something? Breadcrumbs are a bit of a dark art for me and outside of finding modules to do what I've needed so far - this is a new requirement. It's just for the final > in the crumb trail - regardless of where the trail ends.

Thanks for any help.

Cheers,
adam

I"m sure there has to be a way to alter that array before it's sent to the screen and remove the end > from it...

I know it's a bit of a weird thing to be required to do but there is a designer at the helm making these demands who I like to make happy. If I just understood how the crumbs really worked...

thanks for any help anyone is able to offer.

I think you might be using a Zen sub-theme. I had the same issue and then noticed that Zen uses its own function for theming breadcrumbs and exposes some related options in your theme's configuration page. Actually it's not a bug, it's a feature :-)
Try going to your theme configuration page, and under breadcrumb settings uncheck "Append a separator to the end of the breadcrumb" as well as "Append the content title to the end of the breadcrumb". This way you can get Zen out of the way and play with the settings about having the current page's title displayed in the breadcrumb from Many Breadcrumb's configuration page.

if that's not the case and you simply want to override breadcrumb rendering in your own theme, you can try adding a function like the following to your theme's template.php:

function phptemplate_breadcrumb($breadcrumb) {
  if (!empty($breadcrumb)) {
    $brcr = implode(' › ', $breadcrumb);
    return '<div class="breadcrumb">'. $brcr .'</div>';  
  }
}

Hope this helped!
