Dynamic menu items from a database

[Ultrawuft123]

i've tested it about 3 levels deep.

I had a menu, with a submenu, with a submenu wit a menu item.

I made the menuitem private, so it disappeared. It deleted the submenu, submenu and the menu.

Hi Milo!

Ive seen your meny and like it very much. Yoy say you can knock up an admin to the meny. Is that possible???

Morten

I've knocked up a DB driven example. You can adapt for MySQL, MS-SQL2000 whatever you like.

This access version is good for 100 or so, co-current users, then performance will suffer.

Download from http://www.imadeitlast.com/temp/monmenu.zip

I haven't included any admin, if you require I can knock those up as well.

Have fun....

I have my menu database driven using ASP, everything works fine, but i would like to be able to have it so that i can dynamically decide which level the menu starts with, ie
level1
----level2
----level2
---------level3
level1

this is the main structure, so then when i click on one of the level1 items, it only displays the menu as being from it's children down, so if i clicked on the top level1, i would see

level2
level2
-----level3

I could really use some suggestions.
Thanks in advance

I'm not suggesting you use access for big sites, but its a good demo.

Hi,

We wouldn't be able to give you any help. The only menu on this site or supported here is Milonic DHTML Javascript Menu.

You'd have to contact that site and ask them for whatever that monmenu is

EDIT: I found the info, that is something that some user put together and they no longer have it up. In the Milonic download there is an extras folder, that folder has asp, php, database menus so you might want to download the menu from here. Whatever was up back in 2003 would probably not work with the new version.

Also, there's a database menu example here http://support.milonic.com/datamenu/ but again, I believe that stuff is in the Milonic download now.

I've been getting a few re-requests for this item, and as I've rebuild my website about4 times since, I thought I'ld repost the new URL..

What did you use to record the demo with?

I need something like that for Webplugs

Camtasia, expensive, but honestly the best one out there...

Otherwise try Screen toaster, or the humble Microsoft media encoder.

Enjoy.
