I had issues with SVNParentPath but I think it was how I set it up. When I set 
it up the way I showed, it worked well.  When I was doing this, I did not find 
docs that explained SVNParentPath well enough to me so maybe that is why I had 
the setup issues. 

Regards,
Mark

That's exactly what SVNParentPath is supposed to let you do more easily and 
concisely.

That's exactly what SVNListParentPath is for.
