ASP Dynamic menu using Database

[Guest]

Hi can someone tell me where I might be able to get some information on creating a dynamic ASP.NET menu which is populated by a database and has child nodes under main catagouries

I wan to produce something similar to the Microsoft menu system found on www.microsoft.co

Thanks for any advice!

you'll have to build it from the codebehind manually but start at these
sites perhaps

Here are some examples of menu code similar to your description:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/asp.net/?pull=/library/en-us/dnaspp/html/aspnet-buildmenuservercontrol.asp

Or you might consider using a 3rd party menu control such as these:
