Hello Alex!

Thanks.

But then page.cgi will be useless.

It is really hard for me to beleive there could be any better solution other than MySQL query each time. This will ofcourse use connect but not that great overloads in there. However, it would allow all other features to be integrated in the superb way like page.cgi etc.

What about such paths in the database. If Main cats you want to load through Java it still needs references in the tables.

By SQL queries on Categories, you have many more extra advantage. Instead of an extra table for related table and values etc., if there is one MASTER Table for Categories and other MASTER Table for Links every thing could be handled from there by associated values in columns. First one queries which are the main Categories and presents, further steps would be similar to the first step.

By the way is it only an improvement in the management or also on the user side? User side is naturally very important.
