Those are "Areas". Areas are containers for blocks. The 'Header Nav' "Area" contains an 'autonav' block with specific settings to display the menu.

If you want to add a nav in the footer you can do this
<?php
  $a = new Area('Footer Nav');
  $a->setBlockLimit(1);
  $a->display($c);
?>


Then when you "Edit" the page through concrete5 you will see and Area called "Footer Nav".

If you click that an select "Add Block" you can select the "Autonav" block and set it up.

You might want to take a look at the documentation for some more info on how Areas and Blocks work.

Hi thanx for your reply.
I agree with your ans, but if we are using
<?php
$a = new Area('Header Nav');
$a->setBlockLimit(1);
$a->display($c);
?>
then the same result are there
But me want that the menu in header are different and in footer are different

You create a second Area with a different name and place that where you want that Area to show. 'Footer Nav' is a naming suggestion. Each area with a different name will hold different blocks.

Maybe I'm misunderstanding what you are asking?
