Retrieves the navigation item at the specified ItemID path.

Parameters

path

The ItemID path to the returned navigation item.

Return Value

A NavigationItem object that represents the navigation item at the specified ID path, or null if no matching navigation item is found.

Remarks

FindItem method is used to retrieve a NavigationItem object at the specified path. The value path for a navigation item is a delimited list of items' ItemID property value that forms a path from the root navigation item to the current navigation item. To determine the delimiter character, use the PathSeparator property.

[C#] 
 // Declare the ID path to the Dessert menu item using
 // the delimiter character specified in the PathSeparator
 // property. In this example, the delimiter character is the default
 // value - slash. Note that you can not specify "/" in any of your menu item's ID.
 String valuePath= @"Home/Food/Dessert";
 
 // Use the FindItem method to get the Classical navigation item using
 // its ID path.
 EO.Web.MenuItem item = (EO.Web.MenuItem)MyMenu.FindItem(valuePath);

 //Indicate whether the navigation item was found.
 if (item != null)
 {
    Message.Text = "Menu item found.";
 }
 else
 {
       Message.Text = "Menu item not found.";
    }

 Dim item As EO.Web.MenuItem = CType(MyMenu.FindItem(valuePath), EO.Web.MenuItem)

 ' Indicate whether the menu item was found.
 If Not item Is Nothing Then
    Message.Text = "Menu item found. "
 Else
       Message.Text = "Menu item not found."
    End If
