Tired of building custom navigation code for each site?

Have you seen Ryan Heath's Navigation Helper? It's very usable, but it only does one nav-bar. I often have sites where there are many, e.g.

+-----------------------------------------------------------+
| MyApp                           | Home | Sign Out | FAQ | | # "site" nav bar
|===========================================================|
| | *Projects* | Friends |                                  | # "area" nav bar
|===========================================================|

| | Project Overview | Budget | History | | # "tabs" nav bar

require "complex"
w = 39
m = 2.0
w.times do |y|
  w.times do |x|
    c = Complex.new((m*x/w)-1.5,(2.0*y/w)-1.0)

# Rails' assert_select rocks for testing generated markup,
# but it assumes you've just rendered a view. If you want
# to use it in a plain ole' unit test, try adding the
# following to your test_helper.rb.

# Tip o' the Hat to Erik Ostrom for the basic idea:

I want to use the nifty new "placeholder" attribute in HTML5, but few browsers support it. The following uses progressive enhancement to support the feature in a cross-browser way.

Requirements:

• jQuery, version ≥ 1.4
• jQuery-form-example plugin, version ≥ 1.4.2
• Modernizr, version ≥ 1.1
