I’m looking at a piece of development where I want to organise and display my data in a hierarchical way. Essentially I want the users to be able to create and modify a kind of file system and then assign other records into these specific locations.
My initial idea is to simply store my ‘directories’ in a separate table, with each record referenced to it’s parent. I’d like to display this in a kind of expandable-tree-type way, but the big problem with this is that I’m working in CHUI v 9.1E.
Think I can probably write a CHUI-esque version with some browsers that’ll do what I want, but before I start down this route I wondered if there were any general methods or standards for this kind of thing, or any advice that will save me writing something that’s inherantly awful or unworkable.
Thanks,
Andrew
