Hello guys! I made easy parser XML to HTML menu : ))
You can add style for generated links easy, and display method (ex. Im using <ul> <li> <a[...]>hyperlink</a></li><ul>) : )
Can be multi list (ex. <ul><li>link</li><ul><li>sidelink</li></ul></ul>) - im using it for JQuery wrap menu. : ))
I made it, because need for my site and i post here it for all : )
file: class.XMLMenu.php
now, example for using... : )
example menu XML file:
In example im using multi-listing!
USING:
parseMenu(MENU XML FILE, HYPERLINK DISPLAY PATTERN"[, LIST STYLING'S])
DISPLAY PATTERN KEYS
- "+LINK_HREF+" - returns hyperlink url here
- "+LINK_NAME+" - returns hyperlink mask name here
getMenu() <- for display menu : )
