Integration with BreadCrumb

RadMenu can be enabled to keep highlighting the upper level of a menu as the user browses to a lower level menu. This way the user will not feel "lost" when navigating through multi-level menus. Click a menu item to update the breadcrumb and show the current path.

Please, review the source code of this example for details.
