<? /* This is my multi-tier menu system. The menu itself is printed into a one-celled table. There are no collapse or expand functions, but you have a high level of control for the rest of the looks. This has great potential since I designed it in such a way to make it very easy to use loops to set the data (especially if you store it in a database like I do). There is no limit to the number of tiers for this menu system, but there are drawbacks also. For instance, if you specify your width say as 150 pixels, and you use indent spacing, you'll have problems with text wrapping or images cutting off. Text wrapping wouldn't be so bad if it also justified itself after the line break. One thing to note is the way the indents and spacing is done. I use an image (1x1 pixel, transparent gif "images/spacer.gif") for all the spacing, so you may want to either create that image, or find it in the code below (lines 114, 160) to change it to your preference. This is a great startting point for a more advanced menuing system. What I have here serves my needs for now, so I don't think I'll be doing a lot of work on it until it's needed. However, feel free to make improvements and fix fea^H^H^H bugs. If you do, please send me a copy! Examples on use at the bottom of the file.
