teamatomic Posted April 28, 2010 Share Posted April 28, 2010 parent=>child. On sub-categories you keep track of the parent. The when you load the main cat you grab all the subs that have that parent. You then go through those subs and grab any sub-sub-cats that have the sub-cat for a parent...and so on and so on.
