Maybe you could use 2 2 dimensional arrays, might be a little less clunky. Then you could do something like: menutext = arrayNew(2) menulink = arrayNew(2)
menutext[1][1] = "text" menulink[1][1] = "link" menutext[2][1] = "text2" menulink[2][1] = "link2" menutext[2][2] = "text2subtext1" menulink[2][2] = "link2sublink1" etc. To check for existence of sub menu you would do "if ArrayLen(menutext[i] GT 1)" if i was your loop index. -- Josh ----- Original Message ----- From: "Ian Skinner" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "CF-Talk" <[email protected]> Sent: Wednesday, May 24, 2006 10:20 AM Subject: Better way to describe a menu. > I'm trying to create dynamic menu that can be easily described in a > variable.
