I’d have to see the html of the breadcrumb trail in order to get a good idea of how to write the code though…

Is it possible – yes. Is it possible out of the box – no. You’re looking at having to write a custom breadcrumb control there, if you insist on that ‘…’ link.

However, SharePoint has similar functionality out of box – at some points in your heirarchy, stop inheriting the parent sites navigation (Go to Site Settings > Navigation to change this)

See this post for details: http://www.novolocus.com/2008/02/21/what-the-heck-is-going-on-with-sharepoint-breadcrumbs/

great post. But I want to make this one harder for you

Our global company has a lot of subsites (sometimes 15 levels deep) which causes te breadcrumb to break to the next line. Or even if it doesn’t, it still is too long to be useful. What would be nice is if we can make it possible to use this kind of breadcrumb:

Home > Site > Subsite … Almost there > Another Site > Current Site

So the first three levels of sites, then some dots and then the last three levels. Do you think that this is doable?
