Create a simple tree structure using the popular JQuery Framework.

The JQuery framework can be used to create a folder structure for document centers / or applications that require data files to be organized into a hierarchical structure. Usually this type of dhtml script can help improve categorization and create an easy way to access your data. In this example, we will try to use JQuery libraries to create a simple tree structure.

Example

  • Products
    • Product 1
    • Product 2
    • Product 3
    • Product 4
  • Customers
    • North America
      • E & M Company
      • America Construction L.P
    • South America
      • Y-T Affiliates
      • ZEC Company
    • Europe
      • Triton delegates
      • DIF Company
  • Employees
    • Employee 1
    • Employee 2
    • Employee 3


Notes:
  • You can modify the structure of the tree by adding ul and li items to the main ul list which in the following example has been assigned id = browser.
  • You may need to modify the path to the images folder in the jquery.treeview.css
  • Follow the same pattern when using in combination with a server side language to output the tree dynamically
  • See at the end of this tutorial for all the required downloads
