If you have a level field in your table, that is. Very handy to include.

You could also define a style based on the level, dynamically set the class in a div
tag for instance, and then do whatever is necessary in your style sheet for each
level.

<div class="menu#LEVEL#"> ... </div>

Use "level" to determine the output

SELECT *, LEVEL
FROM NAVMENU
START WITH MNUPARENT = 0
CONNECT BY PRIOR MNUPARENT=MNUCHILD

<cfoutput query="qMenu"...>
#RepeatString("- ",qMenu.level)# #qMenu.MNUDISP#<br>
</cfoutput>

This is simple, but you can do more complicated things by using level
