Hi,
if my menu is something like
Home
About Us
.....
Contact Us
then how should i create it.
1) should i make it a static page and just include it every where?
2) should i use files and then create it on the fly?
3) should i use database?
these links almost gonna be same for all the pages. its just i wanna design my own very small content management system to allow some body from inside to change the content whenever they want to.
and also if i use templates then how does there work?????????
thanx in advance[/b]
How should i create a menu?????????

so You mean to say i have to use both of them???you could use all 3.. I'd go with 1 and 3 myself. Build/use a template system (1) for the look and feel, but no content. Use a database (3) for finding the site structure and fill in the content areas of the template.

But i fear about 2 and 3 is if for 3 for some reason there is some problem with file and for 3 if there is some problem with database then nothing would would work properly

I though feyd was very clearly stating his own preference to use 1 and 3. You have to decide what works for you. Me? I use a lot of 1's but a lot of my sites are pretty much static -- that's not really my preference it just how it worked out.so You mean to say i have to use both of them???

If your worried about 2 and 3 maybe generate the menu only when you change it and use 1.
