Hi willy,

Since the menu resides on the client side, that leaves little alternative
in the design of interactive menus for html pages.

While I build dynamic menus in several different manners, the method which
comes closest to what you want is a merging of JSP and a DHTML menu
similiar to what you see on our www.jspinsider.com site.

What we do on some projects is drive the actual menu element design from a
database. When the user logs on, we build up a unique version of the menu
elements relative to their security and access rights. Then store the
results in the session object. Then when a JSP page is called, a DHTML menu
structure is built relative to the data in the session object.
At that point everything is back in dhtml and javascript.
