Hi All,
I am putting together a small CMS system and i need to use an infinite
hierarchy for users to add unlimited pages, sub pages etc.

I am really struggling to get the ASP to work.
I have a single table for the pages 'tblsitepages' with a auto pk
'fldpageid', fldparentid, fldhierarchy, fldpagename

the parentid starts at -1 for top level pages and would increment
2,3,4 etc for any subpages that have childpages
fldhierarchy contains 0000.0000 and would increment depending on its
parent.

eg.

page1 would be - fldpageid1 fldparentid -1
  subpage1 - fldpageid4 fldparentid1 fldhierarchy 00001.00001
  subpage2 - fldpageid5 fldparentid1 fldhierarchy 00001.00002
        subsubpage1 - fldpageid6 fldparentid4 fldhierarchy
00001.00021
        subsubpage2 - fldpageid7 fldparentid4 fldhierarchy
00001.00022


page2 would be - fldpageid2 fldparentid -1
page3 would be - fldpageid3 fldparentid -1


I hope this is making sense! I have the database built but I am
struggling with the ASP

Please can anyone help?

Thanks!

Sorry, I can do about anything in ASP, but I am not quite getting what
you are wanting done. You have a database that is holding a bunch of
users pages, and each user can have any number pf pages. What from
there?

Not really.

Nothing to do with users specifically. Just trying to achieve a system
where infinite pages/sub pages can be added by using one pages table.
I tried to build a ASP version of the PHP 'cms made simple' but i
cannot get it to work :-(

Thanks

" i cannot get it to work :-(  "

people can't help you with vague statements like the above .  they can only help, if you post a specific problem, preferably with
example code showing where the error occurs and a copy of the error message.
