I don't believe this can be done in any simple way. Javascript is certainly not your answer, regardless of if it "can" do it, it's just not smart to place such a burden (navigation of the site) onto JS, which will inevitably break, or won't be available, or will be off. What you need to do is change your include file to do the following, and include it above the nav bar: - do the query - create the navigation - create a $output var, which you use instead of echo, which renders the stuff you'll use further down the page. eg: <? // do query // build navigation // create output to be used later $output = ""; $output .= "something something\n"; $output .= "something else\n"; ?> <!-- other stuff, then finally: --> <?=$output?> Justin French -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
