Thanks, that is exactly what I needed and it doesn't look so
complicated.

 Actually relational databases are set-based.  The answer to 
 your tree structures question is that it is possible. It is 
 quite complicated though, so have a look at this phphoo
 tutorial:

True, but isn't this script a bit database intensive?
You shouldn't have to hit the database so many times,
or doesn't this query as much as I think?

But thank you for the article, It is perfect for my
problem too.

 Relational databases really are tree structures.  However, whereas a tree
 parent node has pointers to children or sibling nodes; in a relational
 database, the nodes point up to the parent node.  The nodes might also
 maintain a field to identify sibling nodes.

 Is there an easy way to implement tree structure in a database.
 Something like file systems do for files.

 Hints, links, anything.

Re: [PHP-DB] TREE in a database

2001-10-29 Thread Andrey Hristov

The OASIS project for ad-server uses hierchical system for the sections 
stored in Mysql.
the simplest structure is a  row with 3 fields(node_id - autoincrement, 
parent_id int, data - sometype). the root has parent_id NULL or 0(because 
autoincrements usually starts from 1, but this is subject to change by user).
I think that this makes clear how to implement the tree.

Have fun.
