We have implemented Milonic's menu on a couple of sites and are happy with the functionality.
We have a new site that needs to implement the menu where items displaying in the menu are based on the security level of the user in the database. The users and security levels are in an access database and users are required to log in before using the site.
Has anyone implemented this type of security using Milonic' s menu?
Menu Security Levels
Maybe this will help.
First create a userIsMember in the backend.
Then add the the template, something like this.
<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">
//<![CDATA[
var userIsMember=0;
//]]>
</script>
On the menu data use
if(userIsMember){
menu items....
}
else{
other menu item....
}
This is an example what I used, but I don't know backend. Maybe it will help.

Note the CDATA is only necessary if you're using XHTML with certain special characters in hard-coded script; i.e., not script called from an external file. Also, some flavors of IE tend to choke on CDATA. The way around is to simply call ("include") as many scripts as possible, special characters or not.
