Details
	This class transforms a n-tree into a 2d array, expanding the selected branch.
	It has to be used to generate hierarchic menus with categories which contains products. 
	For this class application, you have to know that only categories with at least one associated product are visible.
	
	The tree shows the different categories but not the categories'products. If you want to see them, you should write an application 
	which selects the products in the clicked category and print them.

	Categories and products belong to two tables in the database and they are created when you load the two scripts.
