Am I missing something here? menu is not displaying any data, even though adding a breakpoint on the query and look at the results it is returning 3 records.
adminMenu user control:

    
            <%@ Control Language="C#" AutoEventWireup="true" CodeBehind="adminMenu.ascx.cs" Inherits="Waivenet.adminMenu" %> 
        
            <%@ Register Assembly="Telerik.Web.UI" Namespace="Telerik.Web.UI" TagPrefix="telerik" %> 
        
            <telerik:RadMenu ID="RadMenu1" runat="server"> 
        
            </telerik:RadMenu>

adminMenu code behind:

    
            using System; 
             
            using System.Collections.Generic; 
             
            using System.Linq; 
             
            using Waivenet.Linq; 
             
            using System.Web; 
             
            using System.Web.UI; 
             
            using System.Web.UI.WebControls; 
             
            namespace Waivenet 
             
            { 
             
                public partial class adminMenu : System.Web.UI.UserControl 
             
                { 
             
                    protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e) 
             
                    { 
             
            DataClassesDataContext dbcontext = new DataClassesDataContext(); 
             
                        RadMenu1.Skin = SessionWrapper.skin;             
             
                        var sdf = from s in dbcontext.siteMaps.ByHierarchy<siteMap>(t => t.sitemapID == SessionWrapper.siteMapIDCurrent, (parent, child) => (parent.sitemapID == child.parentID)) select new { s.Item.parentID, s.Item.sitemapID, s.Item.name, s.Item.pagePath }; 
             
                        RadMenu1.DataFieldID = "sitemapID"; 
             
                        RadMenu1.DataFieldParentID = "parentID"; 
             
                        RadMenu1.DataTextField = "name"; 
             
                        RadMenu1.DataValueField = "sitemapID"; 
             
                        RadMenu1.DataNavigateUrlField = "pagePath"; 
             
                        RadMenu1.DataSource = sdf; 
             
                        RadMenu1.DataBind();            
             
                    }         
             
                } 
             
            }

If I use an <items> tag in the markup the menu displays it no probs. the ByHierarchy extension method is a way to retrieve hierarchal linq data, stolen from here: http://weblogs.asp.net/okloeten/archive/2006/07/09/Hierarchical-Linq-Queries.aspx
