Hi All,

I have the menu in my application which retrieves the menu names from the database
when I run the application.
But I want to display the same menu names dynamically(before running the application).

The following is the html for menu:

<uc2:Menu ID="Menu1" runat="server">

Can any one Please suggest me on this.

Regards,
Raj

Not clear? What do you mean by dynamic? Isnt retrieving menu names from the database already considered as dynamic?

No... I am given this task in such a way that I should not hardcode the menu names.. But they shoud be retreived from the database and appear on the dynamic web page.. i.e, Before I run the application

Try the following sample code :

MenuItem rootitem = new MenuItem("Ariticles");
            MenuItem childItem = new MenuItem("Ariticle 1");
            MenuItem childItem2 = new MenuItem("Ariticle 2");
            
            childItem.NavigateUrl = "sample.aspx";
            childItem2.NavigateUrl = "sample2.aspx";

            rootitem.ChildItems.Add(childItem);
            rootitem.ChildItems.Add(childItem2);
            
            Menu1.Items.Add(rootitem);
<pre>
