Hi Michael,

I did not see a link in your message, I'd like to check it out, would
you care to repost?  My message should have also read "The drawback to
this system is the menus are *not* built by the database and the
javascript is static."  This code does run on Mac, Linux, Windows, it's
just the application which generates the compiled javascript only runs
on windows.

Thanks,
-Ron
