Menu changing

In html how do you have your menu change when a user logs in

for example on the landing page you might have About and Contact Us in the menu then when the user logs in those will stay but you will add Profile, Edit Profile and Log out.

How do you do that what is the correct terminology?


Cheers

    You'll need to code something in a dynamic language, not HTML. Look into PHP or Javascript - although PHP would be an infinitely better solution.

    You are talking about a PHP script using MySQL or other DB = database

    To "Add Profile" and "Edit Profile" is little more involved than just changing menus... as this is information that has to be input by the user via a form and stored in a DB.

    Which is something you'll have to delve into or get help with as it's a bit long winded to even begin to explain in here.
