Yes! Thank you!

That worked great. Is it possible now to define something like below, what's happening now is that when I actually end up on one of the children, it hides the navigation. I didn't even think about that when i posted my question before.

<xsl:if test="$currentPage/@id = 1122" or child of 1122>
</xsl:if>

he first thing that comes to mind is that you proably want to avoid hard-coding Id's in your code (XSLT or .NET). It sounds like you have a context-sensitive nav that basically just shows the children of the current parent in your master template? If that is the case, then you should look at doing the following:

<ul>
<xsl:for-each select="$currentPage/descendant-or-self::node [string(data [@alias='umbracoNaviHide']) != '1']">
    <li>
        <a href="{umbraco.library:NiceUrl(@id)}">
            <xsl:value-of select="@nodeName"/>
        </a>
    </li>
</xsl:for-each>
</ul>

This should give you the children of the current pages parent (inlcuding itself). If I am not understanding you correctly, please let me know. Also it would be helpful to get complete code that you currently have.

Cheers.

<xsl:if test="$currentPage/ancestor-or-self::node/@id = 1122">
</xsl:if>

Guys, thank you for your help. What i ended up doing was using skiltz code but using a Macro parameter to determine the id, seems to be working great. Basically my problem was that my navigation was complicated enough style-wise that I wanted to hard-code the top-level, but still wanted the scalability of a dymanically-created sub-navigation, this is working very nicely so far.
