index.php?dir=2
Then select * from DB where id=2
that gives you
2 Database 1
If parentid!=0
select * from DB where id=parentid (1 in this case)
push $name onto an array (database is now array index 0)
Then you'll have
1 PHP 0
Know you know you are at the top.
push $name onto an array (PHP is now array index 1)
Now just pop them off the array (PHP -> Database -> end of array)
