I would like to make my website more dynamic/easier to maintain. I have a main menu on my website with links like Products and Services. These main menu items when clicked on, will display thier own submenu items. These submenu items may change over time. Since each submenu page also displays the links for the other submenu items in that category, i do not want to go through all the pages and update the submenu links when a change is to be made. What I would like to do is use an include file (submenu.asp). This include file should check the name of the page to see which main menu item it falls under and display the appropriate submenu. The subpages will have the following structure -- mainmenuitem_submenuitem.html (ex. products_newitems.html). Can anyone offer assistance on how, within the include file, I can check the name of the current page and if it is similar, for example to products, it will display the submenu for products. Thank you.

you are in the wrong forum. This sounds like server side work, not client side stuff.

Though I don't know how it will help you in any way for your problem the url you are on is stored (and can be set) in location.href. From that you can deduce what file you are on.
