New to PHP development, new to the list; searched the archives but didn't find an answer (or at least nothing i could successfully adapt). I have a (readable) directory structure like so: ../navigation /cats /dogs /beagles /collies /some/other/dirs/ /horses I need to display those directories in nested html lists (marked up with css). Using PHP on the above, I'd like to produce the following HTML: <ul> <li>cats</li> <li>dogs <ul> <li><beagles></li> <li><collies> <ul><li>some...</li></ul> </li> </ul> </li> <li>horses</li> </ul> I'm able to display one level deep (cats, dogs, horses), but not nest the lists accordingly. Since this is for a navigation structure, obviously I'll have anchors in the <li></li> lines. They'll be formatted like so href="index.php?section=dogs&chapter=collies&verse=some . Some details about my environment: 1) no files will be in the /navigation (or sub) dirs, but i'd (ideally) like to define a depth, to prevent >3-4 levels of navigation. 2) I can successfully exclude dirs (. and .. and anything else I define) 3) the actual PHP script probably won't be in the /navigation directory, so I'll need a defined starting path (ie, $root = /site/docs/includes/navigation/ or somesuch...). 4) no database access (otherwise this whole contraption wouldn't be an issue...) Any help is greatly appreciated, thank you in advance. --joe -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
