    Question All Levels Navigational Menu - How to mantain items from one source

    Can anyone direct me to the best way to maintain the menu items/links with one source.
    As I see it now I would have to update every page with a revision.
    I could have 25 pages to update.
    Thanks in advance.

    Warning: Please post DD scripts related questions in the correct forum and include a link to the DD script in question in your post. See this thread for the proper posting format when asking a question.

    To answer your question, the best way would be to use something like SSI (if your pages end with .shtml), or PHP's readfile() function, if your pages are .php etc.

    Question Another Try at proper posting

    SCRIPT: All Levels Navigational Menu
    http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamici...menu/index.htm

    I want to use only one source or file to manage the menu items.

    Currently my site is HTML and JavaScript.

    I found that source: Smooth Navigation Menu
    http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamici...smoothmenu.htm
    has a way to do it.
    I just don't know how to translate it to
    All Levels Navigational Menu's scripts
    Thanks Admin!

    ALM doesn't support the Ajax mode of embedding unfortunately. But again, if your pages are dynamic in any way, including SSI enabled (ie: index.shtml), then moving the contents of this menu to a single external file is extremely simple.

    Hi,

    I'm also interested in using this menu but my site is for a school and so going to be even bigger, over 100 pages. The menu would be good but I need to be able to update it from one central file. I don't know a lot about HTML so if it's not too much trouble would you be able to explain how to do this or point me in the direction of a place where I can find out in plain english?

    Dave
