copied!<p>What your full code shows is that your building a massive string of HTML. This is fine for some <em>smaller</em> situations, but your code is clearly getting quite big now, and I would suggest you change this approach.</p> <p>I would recommend that you declare web control equivalents, such as:</p> <pre><code>new HtmlGenericControl("div") instead of <div></div> </code></pre> <p>OR</p> <pre><code>new HtmlAnchor() OR new LinkButton() instead of <a></a> </code></pre> <p>In the example of a tree structure the HTML may look like this:</p> <pre><code><ul> <li> <a href="root.htm">ROOT</a> <ul> <li> <a href="levelone">LEVEL 1</a> </li> </ul> </li> </ul> </code></pre> <p>To generate this in code you would do something similar to:</p> <pre><code>'Menu Holder Dim treeStruct As HtmlGenericControl("ul") 'Root Dim branch As HtmlGenericControl("li") Dim branchItem as HtmlAnchor("a") 'Level 1 Dim subLevel As HtmlGenericControl("ul") Dim subBranch As HtmlGenericControl("li") Dim subBranchItem as HtmlAnchor("a") 'Setup Level 1 subBranchItem.InnerText = "LEVEL 1" subBranchItem.Href = "levelone" subBranch.Controls.Add(subBranchItem) subLevel.Controls.Add(subBranch) 'Setup Root branchItem.InnerText = "ROOT" branchItem.Href = "root.htm" 'Add Link To Root branch.Controls.Add(branchItem) 'Add Sub Branch To Root branch.Controls.Add(subLevel) treeStruct.Controls.Add(branch) </code></pre> <p><strong>Important</strong> The code above is just for examples sake, ideally you would separate the functionality into functions for branch creation and then loop through your elements with your for loop.</p> <p>You will also notice that I have used an <code><UL></code> instead of <code><DIV></code> as I would consider a tree structure to be an un-ordered list. Plus, you will also get the styling benefit from this more ridged structure.</p> <p>I hope this helps</p>
