Tree Menu


Posted on 16th Feb 2014 07:03 pm by admin

Hi guys,

Can anyone help me making a tree navigation system? I have a site where I'm allowing users to upload their files to share with each other. They can create folders, but I'm having real trouble working out how to give the folders 'depth', i.e. folder within a folder within a folder...

Did you know?Explore Trending and Topic pages for more stories like this.
If I could print out an xml file of the folder structure, that would be amazing, but I have no idea how to go about it. All the folders are stored within a database (with info such as their names, permissions, owners etc), as well as being physically stored on my hard disk (this is all just local at the moment).

If I can make an xml file then I can just use a Flex tree component and save myself a lot of time. If anyone has any other ideas or techniques I'd love to hear about them. Also, at present all the folders are actually stored side by side with each other, its the database that tells them how deep they are, but when I get this tree system up and running i think I'll be in a much better place to sort that out.

Thank you
