append a submenu to a glade build Menu?

[Osiris]

I've build a menu within my glade file.

Now I wan't to append to a menuitem of this menu a submenu, which consists of a variable list of entries.

But when i choose the menuitem, there popups only a small rectangle, but not the values I want to see there?

Can't I add a submenu to an MenuItem in a glade build GtkMenu?

Do I have to build the menu, which holds the submenu, completely in my php-file?

Greetings

You need to show the menu and the items first.
