[Chameleon] clear NAV_CMD

[Jesse Cleary]

Thanks Julien

I've experimented with this code block already some.  I guess I'm not 
sure where to insert it.  I tried adding it into the zoom widget code at 
each point where a zoom function seems to be called, but this snippet 
breaks that code:
        PHP Parse error:  syntax error, unexpected '}'
Removing the curly braces kicks this error:
        PHP Parse error:  syntax error, unexpected '='

Not wanting to go much further before asking for advice I also tried adding:
        $this->SetNavCommand("");
which did not seem to have any effect.

Maybe I'm tinkering with the wrong file?  Even if it did work, wouldn't 
this change the zoom functionality over all of my Chameleon apps?

Sorry to bug you about this - I appreciate any further advice you might 
have...

Jesse
