Org Chart Heirarchy / Permissions

[elhaix]

Hey gang,

I've got a few ideas on this, but would like to hear some recommendations.

I'm going to be creating a web-based app where org-chart based permissions will apply. Thus, a user on trunk A can view all users' information under them, but not above on that trunk, and similarly cannot view other trunks (on the tree if you haven't guessed it ).

I've seen some frameworks out there but looking for some recommendations on nested set models, not adjacency list models.

Thanks.

... to clarify - take a look at the following article:

. Works great for organizing data, however, I'd like to make this part of an automatic permissions feature.
