Create a menu block based on path using views I'm trying to use views 3 to create a view that I can place in a block that is based on the url path 

For example

example.com/student/
example.com/student/page1
example.com/student/page2
example.com/student/page3

All 4 pages are in the menu along with other pages
Students
   page1
   page2
   page3

I want to create a view that will display (dynamically) on pages with the following url pattern example.com/student/*
I want the view to only return child menu items that have Student as a parent. 

I'm working with menu view, but I can not get the contextual filter and relationship to work correctly.  Any tips. Or an alternate way to accomplish
You can simply use Menu Block module to accomplish this task. If you want to display a block on specific pages just goto the relevant block configuration and under " Show block on specific pages" select "Only on listed pages" define the following

student/*

Now your block will appear only if this URL pattern will match. No matter what you have used to create your block.
