如何与父评论一起显示对评论的回复？

Question

Hi I'm wondering what's the best apppraoch to display reply to comments together with the parent comments.

---

1 way I learned is to store the replies and parent comments in the same table, while giving the replies an index "parent comment id". The "parent comment id" would be null for the parent comments. When displaying the comments, simply display all together and use an if (parent comment id=null) statement to append the replies to parent comments.

Pseudo-code to demonstrate:

Mysql comment table: comment_id|parent_comment_id|comment_body|...

Php:

foreach

If (parent_comment_id=null) { Display comment_body }

If (parent_comment_id<>null) { Display comment_body }

end of foreach

The other way I'm thinking is to store the replies in a separate table, and pull the replies only when they have a parent comment displayed.

Pseudo-code to demonstrate: Mysql comment table: comment_id|comment_body

Mysql reply table: reply_id|parent_comment_id|reply body

Php: foreach

Display comment_body

If (parent_comment_id=comment_id) { Display reply_body }

end of foreach

You can try NoSQL DB for this . ex MongoDB. it's better then MySQL.

Use Json Display Result.
