I have a navigational structure which takes the user from A-B via cascading menu's; take a look HERE (http://www.stringsexpress.co.uk/acatalog)

What I am trying to do is to allow the user to click on the first option ie: Violin and for the Database to display all the Violin products.

I have double clicked on the section icon and have found a link section under the Layout Tab but im not sure what the string or link would be to query the database.

Any Ideas

I don't think you can do this with Actinic unless you create extra sections and copy all the appropriate products into each such section. A maintenance nightmare.

Also your menu loads very slow. I had a quick look at the source of your pages and there are some wierd things there.

You have TWO <body...> tags in every page!

There are body HTML tags un the <HEAD> section.

The firsat statement after <body> is <tr> no start <table>

There are references to files on your C drive:-

<script type="text/javascript" src="file:///C:/Documents%20and%20Settings/Pre-Installed%20user/Application%20Data/Adobe/Adobe%20GoLive/Settings/JScripts/GlobalScripts/CSScriptLib.js">

The menu code is at the bottom of the pages when it should be in Act_Primary immediately below the body tag.

The NorTree code has been copied in wrong. You have the speedup routine at the end (where it's no use) rather than at the start. Reread the readme.
