Over on PHPEverywhere this morning, theres a new link to a developer's page (Chip Capin) that talks about creating dynamic menus with PHP.
This page is my survey of several PHP tools for dynamically generating menus. As I began to write this (October 2002), I had been using my own hacked together menu package for about 2 years. My own package generates static HTML menus -- it's "dynamic" in the sense that the structure of the menu is determined dynamically, on the server. I started to rewrite it to add support for expandable DHTML menus (menus that would be dynamic on the client).
There's some pretty good examples here for anyone that's wanted to create a menuing systems that's standard from page to page on their site, but is still dynamic and easy to use. He gives three types of examples - non-php dynamic menus, php-generated static menus, and, of course, php-generated dynamic menus. So, if this is something you could use, get on over and check it out!
