hey, there is a HTML::Menu_Browser class that will create a "menu" array based on the directory structure. what are thoughts on a class that would generate a "menu" array from a file which defines the order, title, and url of pages on the site? a format of the file would be: a 3 column flat-file, delimited by anything (but defaults to tabs), with each row having a number, a title, and a url, in that order. for example: 0 Home / 1 Download /download.php 2 About /about.php 2-1 Contact /contact.php 2 -2 Philosophy /philosophy.php a hyphen in the number would allow for definining the multi-dimensionalness [new wurd] of the menu. regular expressions would handle a tolerable amount of bad syntax (improper or trailing whitespace) also i think it would be helpful to have it read other types of files. like HTML files, with tables: <table> <tr> <td>0</td> <td>Home</td> <td>/</td> </tr> <tr> <td>1</td> <td>Download</td> <td>/dowload.php</td> </tr> <tr> <td>2</td> <td>About</td> <td>/about.php</td> </tr> <tr> <td>2-1</td> <td>Contact</td> <td>/contact.php</td> </tr> <tr> <td>2-2</td> <td>Philosophy</td> <td>/dowload.php</td> </tr> -- __________________________________________ PINE 4.33 Mailer - www.washington.edu/pine
