Menu from array little bit of help needed 1

[4x4uk]

Been working on a simple script that generates a website navigation bar from an array, I'm fairly happy with the results and its ability to handle multiple sub menus, however the one thing I cannot figure out and could do with a little bit of help on is how to configure the array so a menu that has a sub menu can also have a link as well. Current code

<?php
// The menu bar is built from the array below.
$pageArray = array(
	"Home" => array( 
        "How to join" => "/index.php?opt=1",
		"Legal" => array(
						"Copyright&nbsp;Information" => "index.php?opt=2",
						"Privacy&nbsp;Statement" => "index.php?opt=3",
						"Disclaimer" => "index.php?opt=4",
						"Club Rules" => "index.php?opt=5",),
		"Contact Us" => "index.php?opt=6&amp;ec=info",
		),
	"Calendar" => "/calendar/",
	"Classifieds" => "/classifieds/",
    "Info" => array(
		"Downloads" => "/downloads/",
		"Calculators" => array(
		"Tyre Size Calculator" => "index.php?opt=6",
		"Wheel Offset Calculator" => "index.php?opt=7",
		"Gear Ratio Calculator" => "index.php?opt=8",)
        ),
	"Forums" => "/forum/",
	"Photo Gallery" => "/photos/",
		);
    
function navGen($pageArray) {
// Walk through $pageArray and generate the navigation list.
	echo "<ul>\n";
		foreach ($pageArray as $name => $url) {
			if (is_array($url)) {
				echo "<li>".$name."\n";
				navGen($url);
				echo"</li>\n";
            } else {
					echo "<li><a href=\"$url\">".$name."</a></li>\n";
					}
        }
		echo "</ul>\n";
}
?>
<div id="navbar">
<?= navGen($pageArray); ?>
</div>

Many thanks

Hi

I would use some special keys, for example empty strings :
