When you create a builder app, it uses the "_function" argument to determine
which "action" to process. To do multiple levels of actions, if I understand
you, you must add another argument for each level. For this example, use
"_condition". Let assume this is a file to maintain your video collection.

IF _condition=VHS
    IF _function=sform
    ELSEIF _function=list
    ELSEIF _function=detail
    ELSEIF _function=upate
    ELSEIF _function=delete
    ELSE Error. <--Not necessary
ELSEIF _condition=DVD
    IF _function=sform
    ELSEIF _function=list
    ELSEIF _function=detail
    ELSEIF _function=upate
    ELSEIF _function=delete
    ELSE Error. <--Not necessary
ELSEIF _condition=LD
    IF _function=sform
    ELSEIF _function=list
    ELSEIF _function=detail
    ELSEIF _function=upate
    ELSEIF _function=delete
    ELSE Error. <--Not necessary
ELSE Error. <--Not necessary
RETURN

If I want to link to VHS List, it would be:
<a href="<@appfile>?_condition=VHS&_function=list&<@userreferenceargument>">

That�s it. You also have to modify all of the links in the builders to
include their respective "_condition" argument, so they work properly.
