Hi,

It all depends on what you understand under the term breadcrumbs.  If 
you just wish to display all the parents of the current active 
navigation node then its just a question of running the navigation tree 
through some xsl templates. 

You would start by editing the layout.xsl.  There you have a variable 
'navigationTree'.  To know what the current active node is just do a 
select of  $navigationTree//n:doc[@active='true']. 

If you really want to show the last n pages visited then that's a 
question of displaying the browser history, which might be done using 
some javascript.  Of course you could also just use the back button ;-)
