Leif,
You may want to look over the system I am creating. It is for
neurobiology, but it uses categories. The URL
is http://brancusi.usc.edu/bkms
I am using both trees and colors.
Regarding your specific problem, you have to have an indexing table, which
will make the necessary relations between the different objects.

I'm trying to create a system to store virtual objects. Each object
will be in a category, and the categories may be in other categories.
The categorie list might look something like:
Food
Candy
Healthy Food
Vegeterian food
Organic food
Gross food
I'm thinking of a datbase structure for the categorys something like:
id (int, auto_inc, primary)
name (text)
insideof(int, id of other catrgory which this one is inside of)
The problem is, I need to generate an indented list such as I showed
before. I know how to do this with a lot of colors (selecting what each
category contains, etc.), but is there a more effieient way? I use
mysql. Thanks for any ideas.
