[...] point of view. I have seen lots of custom menu controls but that couldn't impress me except Waldek Mastykarz's custom menu cotrol. From this control inspiration, i have created my own neat and transparent menu [...]

Hi Waldeck,

it can not be enforced by one of the parameters of the templatedmenu control ( SiteMapProvider ?).
Thx

@sneyre: sure, you can either set every site to inherit the global navigation from the parent or just hard-code the menu in the Master Page.

Hi Waldek,
is there a way to force that all subsites get the same top navigation as the top level site such that subsite are unable to have their own global navigation?
thx

Hi Waldek,

I have successfully migrated this Menu into VB. I have also incorporated the latest Jquery. There was a minor code error that I did :)

Thanks,
Raf

Hey Waldek,

Thanks for you reply. There is something wrong with the eval. I replace it will regular text and it works fine. If I put the code up will you have a look at it?

thanks,
Raf

@Raf: no, not really. There are two things that might be wrong. Either something went wrong while translating the code from C# to VB.NET or there are some minor differences between the languages that would make you use some different syntax.

Hi There,

I converted you nav app into VB.net. This problem that I am getting is that the EVAL portion is not rendering the Title and the URL. I am however able to see the UL-> LI tags. any suggestions?

Thanks,
Raf
