Database Driven Menus

Ok....I know this topic has been created over and over again, but I can't seem to find the answer.

I need to create a navigation menu that uses a database for the menus and sub-menus. I've noticed that Milo has posted the following link several times:

http://www.milonic.co.uk/menu/forum/vie ... php?t=1920

But it's a broken link

Can anyone help please?

PS I'm using this Dreamweaver Ultradev....don't know if that will matter or not.

Try http://www.milonic.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=1920. If that doesn't give you what you need, use Search at the top of the page.

Ah, that linked work and it turns out I had already seen that page while I was using the search function. Unfortunately it doesn't help me much since I'm using coldfusion not ASP. Anyone ever do this in coldfusion?

I'm using some ColdFusion functions in some of my menus, but I'm not using a DB to generate the menus, and I don't recall any posts here of anybody who is. However, the general ideas should be the same between ASP and CF. I'm actually calling some cgi variables for display in the menu, so I know they will work together.

OK, I take it back. One just popped up at http://www.milonic.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=2394. See if that helps any.
