RE: Iterate through tree structure

Hi,

Can you explain the requirements further? Why should the result
have dir1 dir2 and dir4 in the first ul and not dir3? Why does
dir3 not appear in the result? And why do dir4 and dir5 need
to be in a separate ul?

It would be straightforward to list all dirs "above" a given
page, but if one needs to filter some of them out and/or
organize them in a different system than the source, one
needs instructions ;-)

Regards,
EB
