It's really clear what you want. Please specify. 

If what you basicaly want is just a tree structure, then it's done like that: 


CREATE TABLE something ( 
        id INT AUTO_INCREMENT PRIMARY KEY NOT NULL,
        parent INT NOT NULL,
        data1 CHAR(255),
        data2 CHAR(255),
        ...

);

Then you can specify the parent node id for each record in database. 
This is how tree-like structures are stored in SQL. Hope that helps.
