 <h2>Zebra_Mptt, database example</h2>
 
 <p>For this example, you need to first import the <strong>mptt.sql</strong> file from the <strong>install</strong>
 folder and to edit the <strong>example.php file and change your database connection related settings.</strong></p>
 
 <?php
 
 // database connection details
 $mysql_host     = '';
 $mysql_username = '';
 $mysql_password = '';
 $mysql_database = '';
 
 // if could not connect to database
 ($connection = @mysqli_connect($mysql_host, $mysql_username, $mysql_password)) or
 
 // stop execution and display error message
 die('Error connecting to the database!<br>Make sure you have specified correct values for host, username and password.');
 
 // if database could not be selected
 @mysqli_select_db($connection, $mysql_database) or
 
 // stop execution and display error message
 die('Error selecting database!<br>Make sure you have specified an existing and accessible database.');
 
 // first, clear everything in the database
 mysqli_query($connection, 'TRUNCATE TABLE mptt');
 
 // include the Zebra_Mptt class
 require '../Zebra_Mptt.php';
 
 // instantiate the Zebra_Mptt object
 $mptt = new Zebra_Mptt($connection);
 
 // populate the table
 
 // add 'Food' as a topmost node
 $food = $mptt->add(0, 'Food');
 
 // 'Fruit' and 'Meat' are direct descendants of 'Food'
 $fruit = $mptt->add($food, 'Fruit');
 $meat = $mptt->add($food, 'Meat');
 
 // 'Red' and 'Yellow' are direct descendants of 'Fruit'
 $red = $mptt->add($fruit, 'Red');
 $yellow = $mptt->add($fruit, 'Yellow');
 
 // add a fruit of each color
 $cherry = $mptt->add($red, 'Cherry');
 $banana = $mptt->add($yellow, 'Banana');
 
 // add a color, but in the wrong position
 $orange = $mptt->add($banana, 'Orange');
 
 // now move it to fruits, after the "red" node
 $orange = $mptt->move($orange, $red, 'after');
 
 // add two kinds of meat
 $meat = $mptt->add($meat, 'Beef');
 $pork = $mptt->add($meat, 'Pork');
 
 // get descendants of 'Red'
 print_r('<p>Descendants of "Red"');
 print_r('<pre>');
 print_r($mptt->get_descendants($red, false));
 print_r('</pre>');
 
 // get descendants of 'Meat'
 print_r('<p>Descendants of "Meat"');
 print_r('<pre>');
 print_r($mptt->get_descendants($meat, false));
 print_r('</pre>');
 
 // data in the database as a multidimensional array
 print_r('<p>The entire tree');
 print_r('<pre>');
 print_r($mptt->get_tree());
