Extension:JSBreadCrumbs

This is a simple extension that adds a jQuery based Javascript file and a CSS file to your wiki's output that will add a trail of navigation breadcrumbs below the navigation tabs. The idea is for a simpler history than your back button that only tracks navigation inside of the wiki. Unlike the browser's back button, it will only track GET requests, not POSTs, and will remove duplicate entries from the list.

Requirements

 * MediaWiki 1.16+
 * The Vector skin, as it is the only one that includes jQuery

Installation
Add the following to the end of LocalSettings.php:

Configuration
Defaults shown below:

Using as a Gadget instead of as an extension
Since this extension simply adds a Javascript and CSS file, it can easily be added as a gadget, if your wiki is using the Extension:Gadgets extension. To do so, take the Javascript, and add it as a gadget; then take the CSS and add it to MediaWiki:Vector.css.
