Does anyone have any navigation-XSLT that includes a check to make sure this member has access to this node? Essentially, I want to "security trim" the navigation so it only shows the nodes this member has access to. Obviously, it has to work when no one is logged in as well.

Not sure how to tackle this one. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
James

Here's a snippet of how I do it in XSLTsearch...

Code:

    <xsl:variable name="possibleNodes" select="$items/descendant-or-self::node[
                                               string(data [@alias='umbracoNaviHide']) != '1'
                                               and (umbraco.library:IsProtected(@id, @path) = false()
                                                    or umbraco.library:HasAccess(@id, @path) = true())
                                               ]"/>


The important things you want to look for are the umbracoNaviHide property (a de-facto standard), and then if the node IsProtected() and, if so, if the current user HasAccess() to it.
