I am trying to get something like the following:

Title   
---------------------
topic #1
        sub topic #1.1
topic #2
        sub topic #2.1
        sub topic #2.2

from the following table (I am using php for scripting).

forum
------------
id                      int
parent_id               int (refers to the forum.id field)
title
...

How can I get the above output in the correct order since the posts
into the table can come in any order?  I have tried various order by's
and group by's.

I am so lost on this.

Thanks in Advance,
Scott Hathaway
