Put linq to sql results into hierarchical structure for using in a un-ordered list ( for jquery tree )

Question

I have 5 tables in a L2S Classes dbml : Global >> Categories >> Sub-Category >> Item >> Item Data. I want to be able to navigate from the Global table down a tree like structure

Answer 1

I think what is hanging you up is that you don't need four tables to do this.

Look at Return unordered list from hierarchical sql data again. There aren't four tables there. There's only one.
