Larry
Again, thanks for the pointer.
I implemented your suggestion on my test server with lots of manually 
editing.

That  bring me to my original request. I think above process should be 
automated
by parsing bb-hosts file and insert the links onto each page instead of 
Tigra menu_items.js file.


Regards


tj
