Re: PHP and dynamic DHTML TREE (not menu) - suggestions

I made an ajaxy tree using this and other bits of YUI, using data from a mysql db that is then output as JSON data. getting it together was all rather painless, I can very much recommend using YUI's treeview. :-) I use the tree to display a explorer like view of all the 'pages' defined in a CMS' database and generate icons alongside each node for deleting, moving, editing, etc when the tree is rendered using the data retrieved via 'ajax' - each list of children is retrieved as/when a node is expanded. it is possible to define custom Node 'subclasses' (sub-prototypes?) [in javascript] that allow you completely customize the functionality/display/etc of each (type of) node. the Dojo toolkit will also do what you want but the learning curve is steeper. I've used both and while I like dojo for the insane ammount of functionality I prefer to use YUI for smaller solutions.
