How do you convert a parent-child (adjacency) table to a nested set using PHP and MySQL?

I found an answer online and updated the question on this page to show others how it is done.

UPDATE - PROBLEM SOLVED

First off, I had mistakenly believed that the source table (the one in adjacent-lists format) needed to be altered to include a source node. This is not the case. Secondly, I found a class via BING that does the trick. I've altered it for PHP5 and converted the original author's mysql related bits to basic PHP. He was using some DB class. You can convert them to your own database abstraction class later if you want.

Obviously, if your "source table" has other columns that you want to move to the nested set table, you will have to adjust the write method in the class below.

Hopefully this will save someone else from the same problems in the future.
