    <p>Trying to create a navigation from an existing menu, here's the markup:</p> <pre><code>&lt;nav&gt; &lt;ul id="nav"&gt; &lt;li&gt; &lt;a href="?=home"&gt;Home&lt;/a&gt; &lt;ul&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;a href="?=sub-1"&gt;Sub 1&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;a href="?=sub-2"&gt;Sub 2&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;a href="?=sub-3"&gt;Sub 3&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;a href="?=sub-4"&gt;Sub 4&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;a href="?=sub-5"&gt;Sub 5&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;/ul&gt; &lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt; &lt;a href="?=about"&gt;About&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt; &lt;a href="?=services"&gt;Services&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt; &lt;a href="?=portfolio"&gt;Portfolio&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt; &lt;a href="?=contact"&gt;Contact&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/li&gt; &lt;/ul&gt; &lt;/nav&gt; </code></pre> <p>This is the javascript loop I have, which currently finds and appends each top level menu item, but I really am unsure how to target the nested children and append them with a hyphen for nested elements.</p> <pre><code>var nav = document.getElementById('nav'); var list = nav.children.length; for (var i = 0; i &lt; list; i++) { var option = document.createElement('option'); option.innerHTML = nav.children[i].children[0].innerHTML; option.value = nav.children[i].children[0].href; select.appendChild(option); } </code></pre> <p>So it would basically do this:</p> <pre><code>&lt;select&gt; &lt;option value="?=home"&gt;Home&lt;/option&gt; &lt;option value="?=sub-1"&gt;- Sub 1&lt;/option&gt; &lt;option value="?=sub-2"&gt;- Sub 2&lt;/option&gt; </code></pre> <p>Etc. etc...</p> <p>Any help would be massively appreciated! Thank you.</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
