Can anyone suggest solutions for creating a dynamic database driven product menu in Classic ASP?
My categories are stored in one table like this:
CategoryID autonumber
ParentID number
Category text
Depth number
Lineage text

Giving out as:
CategoryID ParentID Category Depth Lineage
137 0 Electricals 0 /137/
138 0 Gas 0 /138/
139 0 Cal/Repair 0 /139/
140 0 Tools 0 /140/
9 1 Calibration Checkboxes 1 9/
10 1 RCD Testers 1 10/
11 1 Loop Testers 1 11/
12 1 Insulation Testers 1 12/
13 1 Test Kits 1 13/
14 1 Testers 1 14/

I don't exactly what you mean. But if you work with Dreamweaver Repeat Region will do the action.

Hi Andy,

Search Google for jQuery dropdownmenu's and combine this with ASP. there a lots of free scripts. Like this one

javascript-array.com/scripts/multi_level_drop_down_menu/?st

You can also look at www.projectseven.com for extensions [NOT FREE]
