What about XML style:
<cfsavecontent variable="strMenuXmlData">
<menu>
<item>
<text>A link</text>
<link>http://www.google.com</link>
</item>
<item>
<text>A link</text>
<link>http://www.google.com</link>
<menu>
<item>
<text>Sub A link</text>
<link>http://www.google.com</link>
</item>
<item>
<text>Sub A link</text>
<link>http://www.google.com</link>
</item>
</menu>
</item>
<item>
<text>A link</text>
<link>http://www.google.com</link>
</item>
</menu>
</cfsavecontent>
<cfset xmlMenuData = XmlParse( Trim( strMenuXmlData ) ) />

Subject: Better way to describe a menu.
I'm trying to create dynamic menu that can be easily described in a
variable. My first attempt feels very clunky. Can anybody suggest a
cleaner and/or more efficient way to describe a nested menu?
My first Attempt:
menu = arrayNew(1);
menu[1] = structNew();
menu[1].text = "A link";
menu[1].link = "http://www.google.com";;
menu[2] = structNew();
menu[2].text = "B link";
menu[2].link = "http://www.google.com";;
menu[2].subMenu = arrayNew(1);
menu[2].subMenu[1] = structNew();
menu[2].subMenu[1].text = "subMenu 1";
menu[2].subMenu[1].link = "http://www.google.com";;
