Now I'm really confused.
All the javascript menu does is load different template files.
I need to pass the filename that the user clicks on from the list created
by the <cfdirectory>...<cfoutput query="dirlist">
and your array stuff to the template that the menu loads.
Attached is my code.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
