Not quite yet; but it is possible to show/hide menu items (as shown in our toolbar sample). With this you can gain pretty much the same functionality, with the big difference that you need to design your menus carefully from the start--basically the menu should contain all possible items, and later you can hide some, depending on the context.

It is true though that we still have work to do concerning the "dynamic aspect"; on the other hand, of all Web-based menu systems, we believe ours is the most "dynamic". ;-)

This is a pretty big topic for my team. How far away is this feature?

It would be awesome if you just had a DynarchMenu.refresh() or something along those lines where you just update the HTML structure of the menu and then tell DynarchMenu, hey refresh yourself.

Or helper methods that would allow you to update the structure dynamically... but with libs like jQuery and Prototype out there, updating the DOM has become VERY easy.

So using jQuery we are altering the HTML lists and then calling the initialization again. This updates the menu items but for some reason is killing our "arbitrary html" within one menu item. Any suggestions as to why this is happening?
