Sorry... When I say on-the-fly, check out these 3 pages: 1. http://webreference.com/dhtml/hiermenus/inprogress/7/mega1.html (watch status bar of browser go crazy as it builds - this is how mine currently works)
2. http://webreference.com/dhtml/hiermenus/inprogress/7/mega2.html (watch status bar of browser go crazy when you mouse over each top level menu item - this is an option, but I prefer number 3) 3. http://webreference.com/dhtml/hiermenus/inprogress/7/mega3.html steve -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Barry Beattie Sent: Thursday, 25 March 2004 10:07 AM To: CFAussie Mailing List Subject: [cfaussie] Re: hierarchical menus Steve, when you say "on the fly", do you mean like http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp where the onclick of the "folder" icon calls more xml to populate the child menus?
