Dear fellow software engineers,
Is the web menu in asp 2.0 essentielle a useless control ?
How many people( including msdn itself) are using server menu
controls?
Its a menu which always postback to server, which cant be caught on
the event of a menuitem. Wouldnt we rather use other ways of making
menus which are essentially clientsite ? With its postback its
certainly not high on usebility. Then we have to use ajax or
javascript injection to make it clientsite again( if the last is even
possible). What in heavens name is the use of this highly advocated
control ?
Tx for answers..

?? All the asp controls are server-side and post back to the server.
Hence:
asp:mycontrol runat=server id=fubar

Edwin,
Tx for your response. Still I am curious why the sophisticated people
of microsoft have designed a rich component like the menu which
is *not* clientsite. Do you think they really make components which
are not usable in itself but only with clientsite script ?
And then another point. How difficult or easy would it be to call http
or js from a menuitem handler ?

Hi,
I'm looking of a way (preferred - a ready class or dll) to customize
the context menu.
many application has more controls inside the context menu (like
textbox, sliders, checkbox, panel etc').
is there a way making this without writing my own context menu
(meaning, popup form or something) ?
Please don't post commercial products to this topic
thanks.

Hi,
I have a page with a scrollable DIV, and within that DIV, I have a few asp.net menu controls. The idea being, the user mouses over the small icons and is presented with a list of options.
One of these lists has more data than the page allows for, so the menu control automatically creates the scroll up / scroll down commands at both ends of the menu. The problem is; since it is within a scrollable div, the menu scroller are hidden! ...

again. Can anyone point me in the right direction?
