simple navigation: cpath->categories

Hello,

I'm new to zencart and something confuses me why is there no function to **lookup the current categories to display them on product_info_display **

I just want it like here:
http://www.zencart137.jadetrue.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=1&products_id=1

Home :: Testing (Toplevel) :: Testing2 (Sub)

This is a must have for every shop I'm so confused why it's not in the main code.

I've tried a lot and searched here and there but usually people want to hide
categories or want to display them horizontally O_o

I found out that $cpath displays the category path id's but it's difficult for me to read the first number and then if there is a "_" to start reading again.
Is there a php function (just like ereg or preg_match to test a value) to get the real numbers into a simple variable I can output via ECHO? That would solve that because then it's easy to read out the categories in the CATEGORIES_DESCR table.

Thanks in advance, maybe someone can even come up with a better solution or someone knows how its done at jadetrue.com

That's what they call the "breadcrumbs". You can turn them on or off easily through the admin of your Zen Cart install. There is no need to create a totally new function for it as it is already built in.
