hi,

if you are already using some menu.php file, than just get DB data from this
file directly (you don't need to forward it or something).

it could be something like this (for example you have some table menu with
following columns: menu_id, description, menu_order):

$sql = "SELECT menu_id, description FROM menu ORDER BY menu_order";
$result = mysql_query($sql);

while ($row = mysql_fetch_row($result)) {
print "<td>$row[1]</td>";
}

......

it is not complete, but it is quite simple..

greetz,
dani
