Are you sure that you can create menu bar which reads database using simple dhtml???
If i'm right simple DHTML with JavaScript can't use any ODBC drivers or simply connect to the MySQL Database...
Maybe you can try to use JSP/ASP or PHP technology ? You will be able to connect to the Database from them

Good Luck

I found out that there were some scripts (someone told me) but he didn't know where they were. You know what they say... when in doubt, ether A) find another way, or google it!

wow, I think that's worthy of clapping!umm, yeah, I think I found something. I'm going to mod it so it is compatible with the very popular "somare porumente" or someting like that. It is going to be great!I'll tell you guys when it's done, but If you can find a dhtml menu with:-mysql reading-css color controll-large icons in the root items only-good functionalityThen please help me by giving me a download link!

Hello there!

 

You can find alot of neat DHTML scripts for free at dynamic drive:

 

http://www.dynamicdrive.com/

 

I am not sure if they have exactly what you are looking for but even if they don't you might find something that is useful for you there.

 

Have a great day!

allright, I've seen some good scripts like that, so now I want a good place to learn DHTML. That way, I can use "sommaire parametrable" as the admin backend, and use it's database to intergrate the DHTML menu.

one thing- can you carry variables over to javascript embeded things?

EX:

<?php$myvariable = 56?><script>//I dont know too much javascript,//so this is where you would put a code that displays '$myvariable</script>

For an alternative to a DHTML dropdown menu, check out Suckerfish Dropdowns - CSS dropdown menu which uses only 12 lines of javascript and works in just about every browser. I use this method on my company's site.
