The following is a step-by-step tutorial that will show you how to display a simple menu without any styles containing CMS content using the CMSListMenu control:

 

1. Create a new Web form somewhere in your website installation directory.

 

2. Switch to its Design tab, drag and drop a CMSListMenu control from the toolbox onto the form.

 

3. Switch to the Source tab. The code of the CMSListMenu control should look like this:

 

<cms:CMSListMenu ID="CMSListMenu1" runat="server" />

 

Now replace the DOCTYPE above the <HTML> element with the following one:

 

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.1 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">

 

4. Save the changes to the web form. Now right-click it in the Solution explorer and select View in Browser. The resulting page should display a UL/LI based menu like this:
