dynamicly changing context menus

Hi
I'm making a web application which is a copy of existing desktop
application.
I use telerik controlls for MS visual studio
I have a little bit complicated situation beacuse I need context menus but
the main problem is that they have to be downloaded from server after the
page loads. I can't load all of them on page because there are to many.

This is my solution of the problem.
When user right-clicks js download from server through XMLHttpRequest some
data from serwer and make menu from them.
But it needs much work to make the menu look nice, now I just have one level
menu.

I've been looking for some controlls that can do the things I need but with
no result.
Maybe You could recommend me some controlls (comercial or free)

Would *you* like to have 2-5 seconds delay on each click before context

menu appears?

I would get crazy on the 3rd click. *Many many* users too.
Interface has to be as fast responsive as possible, even if the
interface initialization phase will get longer. This fact was proven by

blood (money) over the last years.
You need several minutes to load your menus? Load them. Just make sure
then later all menus will popup like Jack In The Box on the first
demand.

I know about it but it's to many element's to load it once.
Google suggest works with little delay.
