Hi All- I have the following problem. A top level directory /clients and there are a number of directories beneath (and further subdirectories) I need to produces the following HTML: 

<ul class="navigation-explorer">

       <li><div class="icon" id="menu/menuitem[0]"><a class="navigatio
+n-node" href="#" onclick="top.customnavhandler('menu/menuitem[0]'); r
+eturn false;">Business</a></div></li>

       <div class="navigation-layer">

       <ul class="navigation-explorer">

              <li><div class="icon" id="menu/menuitem[0]/menuitem[0]">
+<a class="navigation-node" href="#" onclick="top.customnavhandler('me
+nu/menuitem[0]/menuitem[0]'); return false;">Small Business</a></div>
+</li>

              <div class="navigation-layer">

              <ul class="navigation-explorer">

                     <li><div class="icon" id="menu/menuitem[0]/menuit
+em[0]/menuitem[0]"><a class="navigation-node" href="#" onclick="top.c
+ustomnavhandler('menu/menuitem[0]/menuitem[0]/menuitem[0]'); return f
+alse;">Products & Services</a></div></li>

                     <li><div class="icon" id="menu/menuitem[0]/menuit
+em[0]/menuitem[1]"><a class="navigation-node" href="#" onclick="top.c
+ustomnavhandler('menu/menuitem[0]/menuitem[0]/menuitem[1]'); return f
+alse;">Solutions</a></div></li>

                     <li><div class="icon" id="menu/menuitem[0]/menuit
+em[0]/menuitem[2]"><a class="navigation-node" href="#" onclick="top.c
+ustomnavhandler('menu/menuitem[0]/menuitem[0]/menuitem[2]'); return f
+alse;">Wireless</a></div></li>

                           <div class="navigation-layer">

                           <ul class="navigation-explorer">

                                  <li><div class="icon" id="menu/menui
+tem[0]/menuitem[0]/menuitem[2]/menuitem[0]"><a class="navigation-node
+" href="#" onclick="top.customnavhandler('menu/menuitem[0]/menuitem[0
+]/menuitem[2]/menuitem[0]'); return false;">Phones</a></div></li>

                           </ul>

                           </div>

              </ul>

              </div>

       </ul>

       </div>

</ul>

I was hoping there is a quick Perl script that will recurse through these directories and be able to dynamically determine the depth and produce the required levels. Each lower level requires the fullpath of it's parents, and there is an XML file in each folder with some more information to be parsed. I think I can figure that one out once the recursion code is working. Might anyone be able to shed some light on this one? Thanks a bunch!!!
