Milonic JavaScript Menu

... OO is the way we want to go with this.

I love OO too so I definitely agree with that. Anyway, I'd be happy (not to mention honored) to contribute if I can. In my abundant spare time You can contact dmintz@davidmintz.org any time.

Hey Andy,

This seems to work with my menu_data.js. However, it really hasn't been tested with any kind of rigor. It certainly hasn't been subjected to real XP style unit testing or anything like that. It's sure to break if it encounters anything odd.

Also, it only parses out bare urls and has no ...

Geez, me and my big mouth, I'm just realizing how much work this could be. One minute into it, I'm thinking, ok, we have to ignore comments.

Any workarounds, or am I just being dense again?

Thanks!
