Hi,

I have a mysql database populated with categories/subcategories, and I'm on the way to build a php/html/css presentation module to show the hierarchy above mentioned.

My objective is to have a simple and clean way to list those categories, widthout getting to confuse to the client (note that there's no "level" limit to the subcategories, so there may be 1 or 100).

I'd like you guys to advise me some visual examples on how to display my categories.

Thank you in advance!

How about a windows-like tree view? People are used to that.

That becomes too big when the number of subcategories are huge. I need something that allows navigation but don't make the user browsers to expand.

how do I accomplish that in html/css?

Off the top of my head; I'd say float a few lists together. Depending on what lits-item is click, hide/show lists pertaining to that selection.
