# How to Create a Navigation Menu
In this how-to, we'll create a simple menu which you can use as the primary navigation for your website. This outputs a
top level menu with a nested second level using the `Menu` loop and a `Children` loop.
**app/templates/Page.ss**
```ss
<ul>
<% loop $Menu(1) %>
<li>
<a href="$Link" title="Go to the $Title page" class="<% if $isCurrent %>current<% else_if $isSection %>section<% end_if %>">
$MenuTitle
</a>
<% if $isSection %>
<% if $Children %>
<ul class="secondary">
<% loop $Children %>
<li class="<% if $isCurrent %>current<% else_if $isSection %>section<% end_if %>"><a href="$Link">$MenuTitle</a></li>
<% end_loop %>
</ul>
<% end_if %>
<% end_if %>
</li>
<% end_loop %>
</ul>
```w
