Here's is the basic code I have so far:
'-- Build Top Full Horizontal Menu at Menu1 server control
Dim menuXML As New System.Xml.XmlDocument
Dim xmlNode As System.Xml.XmlNode
menuXML.Load(Server.MapPath("CoStar.xml")) ' the Menu file
Menu1.DataSource = menuXML
Menu1.DataBind() ' Top Horiz Menu built
'-- Build SubMenu Menu at Menu2 server control
Dim xmlSubMenu As XmlDocument = New XmlDocument
Dim xmlDeclaration As XmlDeclaration =
xmlDoc.CreateXmlDeclaration("1.0", "utf-8", Nothing)
Dim rootNode As XmlElement = xmlDoc.CreateElement("Menu")
xmlDoc.InsertBefore(xmlDeclaration, xmlDoc.DocumentElement)
xmlDoc.AppendChild(rootNode)
Dim strMenuItemText As String = "Settlement" '-- Hardcoded here
Dim myXPath As String =
String.Format("/menu/menuItem[text='{0}']/subMenu", strMenuItemText)
'this should point to subMenu node for Settlement menuitem if the
Xpath is right
xmlNode = menuXML.SelectSingleNode(myXPath)
' ??? How to collect all the childNodes and copy to new document
' xmlNode.childNodes loop ? with appendChild etc ?
Menu2.DataSource = xmlSubMenu
Menu2.DataBind()
