I've implemented WebFM with two user classes -- those who can upload content/admin the directory and those who can't. Using a test account with the limited permissions, I've discovered an interesting bug. (I've attached a jpg of the issue).

WebFM stops the limited acct. from navigating up into the root directory because the user doesn't have admin permissions. This makes sense and is what it should do. However, when I go down into a sub-directory of the general user directory, I am unable to navigate up again by use of the breadcrums in the list view. The tree works fine, but navigating to a sub-directory seems to draw a broken step into the breadcrumb navigation and tells me the general user folder (here called "users") is a "forbidden dir".

I ask because my client wants me to get rid of the Tree navigation window (she calls it ugly, I call it helpful) and I can't get rid of it until the general user can actually navigate their allowed directories :)

Help?

The path looks strange with the double //. The breadcrumb code has changed slightly in the latest release (5.x--2-2) so you may wish to upgrade and retest.
