Menu for Web Application

[bungpeng]

I am going to developing a huge web application (Intranet) which should support multi-level menu (module, sub-module, sub-sub-module...)

My problem is, what type of menu is suitable for me? Java Applet? Javascript? DHTML? Flash?... any free source or third party component available?

Please let me know.... Thank you very much

Youll find some pretty good looking menu controls in the Control Gallery over on asp.net

Or you can easlily create your own with Tabstrip or other IE controls provided by Microsoft for FREE. I usually download these, then create a NEW class that inherits from them. Then I can do whatever I want to it including modifying the html output stream so that it works in both IE and explorer.

You can just look for Microsoft in front of the name on the link that I gave above. You can read about them here:

I guess it depends on what you want. If youre willing to spend money to produce a quality product then Id suggest going ahead and spending the money for something like Infragistics Suite which I personally think is a bargain at $495 or so ( http://www.infragistics.com/products/navigation.asp?sec=2&cat=1 ). You could always hack up a menu yourself but Id rather spend my time solving new problems not chasing down javascript/dhtml bugs.

BTW. Whats that avatar all about? Kinda freaky given our recent history.
