Thanks for your reply. I guess this would work quite well for my
purpose, except, that I should know how deep I am in the recursion for
putting spaces (&nbsp;) in front of the links.

Is there a plan to include a Smarty function which could look like this:

{recursive from=$variable item=new type=preorder|inorder|postorder
recursive_for=$variable->childs name=my_recursion}
{smarty.my_recursion.depth} {new->name}
{/recursive}

Because recursive datastructres are quite usefull in many areas of
computer science I think it would be a great feature if smarty could
include a function for handling them...

Or is such a plugin written easily, I didn't know that, because I never
had the need to write a smarty-plugin

Sincerly, Patrick
