HMENU with SPC (spacer)

This is  Typoscript example of a three level HMENU making use of the SPC property to enable spacers in the menu. Spacers are not real pages, rather, they are just headlines that appear in the menu. The Typoscript HMENU in this example is the real HMENU used for the left navigation of this site. The grey entries are spacers.
