[cfaussie] Re: hierarchical menus

[George Lu]

I've used Flash Components Kit for our Intranet but now I'm going to change it to HV Menu http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex1/hvmenu/index.htm. It's quite fast.   George >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 25/03/04 8:46:39 >>> hey everyone,   i have been using V3 of "HierMenus" dhtml menu on our intranet here for almost 3 years now, but due to the growth of the intranet (and subsequent menu growth), the menu is taking up to 5 seconds to load upon each page hit. And it's not just a matter of the page rendering and waiting for the menu to catch up... the page does not load UNTIL the menu is finished loading, so the user sits looking at a white screen for 3-5 seconds each page hit, which is frustrating to say the least (not to mention embarrassing for me as the developer of the site!)   a quick visit to HierMenus Central.com tells me they are almost ready to release V6 of HierMenus which, of all things, has the ability to create menus on-the-fly upon mouse-over, which is exactly what i am looking for. unfortunately it is now a licenced product with a hefty price tag (approx US$1K) so i am now in search of an alternative solution... ie. cheaper solution!   i posted this question a few weeks ago, but did not get a single response, so here goes again.   can anyone recommend a low-cost dhtml menu system that enables on-the-fly menu building upon mouse over that sounds like it might suit me? all i want is a menu that does not hold up page loading. we are 100% IE5+ environment.   thanks,   steve c --- You are currently subscribed to cfaussie as: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] MXDU2004 + Macromedia DevCon AsiaPac + Sydney, Australia http://www.mxdu.com/ + 24-25 February, 2004 --- You are currently subscribed to cfaussie as: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] MXDU2004 + Macromedia DevCon AsiaPac + Sydney, Australia http://www.mxdu.com/ + 24-25 February, 2004 AMES (Adult Multicultural Education Services) www.ames.net.au Disclaimer ********************************************************************** This email and any attachments may be confidential.
