Hi All!

i'm new to SMARTY but i already love it - great for separating presentation from logic.

i do have a problem however on a short project i'm trying to get done quickly.

i want to make a cascading/heirarchical menu with data from a database but i cannot figure out from the documentation how to set this up (the php & smarty parts not the sql). i've been trying to reconcile the w3c html doc on forms with the smarty manual discussion of html_options

could someone provide a complete but straightforward example of the php & tpl needed to have a browser display cascading menu options like


option1
option2
option3->option3.1
option3.2
option3.3
option4
option5->option5.1
option5.2->option5.2.1
option5.2.2
option6

TIA
