I want to write some simple menu code that all my pages can refer to (so if I add a page or modify the menu, I don't have to do it 100 times).

Are there any tutorials out there that help with a simple function like this?

Thanks!

it's exactly the same in ASP.NET as it is in ASP

Public Static Shared Class MyMenuGenerator

Public Static Shared Sub Render

Response.Write "Here go the menu codes!"

End Sub

End Class

---------------------------------

MyMenuGenerator.Render()

Argh!!! Static is C#, the VB way to do that is Shared. On that note, anyone know how to make strike through text?

I just wanted to point out, in VB 6 a shared method or class or member variable was pain. That was because of a limitation in VB 6 itself and or in COM. This isn't a problem anymore in .NET. In fact, it's quite the opposite. Calling a static method means the framework doesn't have to do null checks on the object, and the same goes for a static class. Plus, of course, you don't have to actually create an instance. So, for two reasons, it's actually faster under ASP.NET to use static classes and methods, if they're truly stateless.

Just wanted to point that out for anyone reading this thread, who might be curious and moving from ASP to ASP.NET.

What... you guys arent hip on the <ASP:Menu /> control?

Its not everything for everyone, but it does basic site menuing and breadcrumbing very easily... and works using the Menu provider structure so you can plop in more elaborate Menu implementations later on when you get more time or money.

Master Pages / User Controls.....

If you're just doing it for a menu, create a User Control...

Or better yet include a user control on your master page :P

There is a menu option is available in Dot NET and formating containts also available in this menu property
