Dynamic, server-side construction of the tree, reading from a database

[R .sourav nayak]

hi,
i have to represent the data in a tree structure format in my jsp page. The datas are stored in the database in tree structure way. i just need to write a java class which can help me to display those data in tree strutcure way.

Could some one tell me how to do that or provide me some good link on this.

thanks in advance

I guess I'd start with figuring out how the tree will be represented in HTML and start from there.

Hi Bear,
thanks for the immediate response. I have already created the tree structure in my html by puting the hardcoded datas and the structure looks like following :

topleve1
     sublevel1
           sublevel1
                   leafnode1
                   leafnode2
toplevel2
    sublevel2
        leafnode21
        leafnode22

but now i wanted to get those datas in tree structure way from the database
since my application is struts based, in my action class ,i am able to iterate though the nodes and leaf nodes. But the problem i am having is - in my action class i am not able to keep that temporarly in a tree structure way as i go through each iterator. so its being problem for me to display that on jsp page.

Could you provide me some hint

thanks in advance
