thanks jox.
very common nav. in the example: starts with "home" ends in "suits"

oh.. well, does it have a certain name? Hm...Categorize? Tree?
- ER0
it has a name, and i knew at one time. you know when you cant remember something and it will drive you crazy till you remember? well, im there.

yeah, I think it's tree, or folder nav, or simply browse or something
- ER0
ok, so i have solved part of the riddle. A coworker reminded me of the slang, but not the offical one.
Its loosly refered to as a "breadcrumb" navigation.
i still want to remember the legit one.
