Hierarchy Navigation
Hi Everyone,
Coming from the relational database world, I plan to implement hierarchy navigation in a 'tabular' way (as I would with a relational structure). The way this will work is with two list boxes and one button:
Box_Parent: will show the parents
Box_Children: will show the children
Button_Up: Will take you back up one level
(i.e. when you click on the child, then the child becomes the parent and the new children are displayed in the children box)
The heirarchy will be something like this: All/BusinessUnit/Plant/Team
From my experience with relational structures, I know that this will work OK but as XML is inherently a hierarchical structure, I am wondering whether I will be 'missing a trick'?
If anyone out there can point me towards a good 'howto' or maybe an example of an XSL template 'walking a hierarchy', then that would be very interesting for me (and for others?)
Many thanks for any tips that you can give me.
Regards,
Alan Searle.
