help:: convert example list to table

[illuminate3]

The example has this render as an example:

function renderNode($node) {
  if( $node->isLeaf() ) {
    return '<li>' . $node->name . '</li>';
  } else {
    $html = '<li>' . $node->name;

    $html .= '<ul>';

    foreach($node->children as $child)
      $html .= renderNode($child);

    $html .= '</ul>';

    $html .= '</li>';
  }

  return $html;
}

But I'm having a huge problem converting this to a table set up .... (I'm using this as a presenter() )

    public function renderTable($node)
    {
        $title = $node->title;

        if ($node->depth > 0) {
            $title = str_repeat('—', $node->depth) . ' ' . $title;
        }

        if ( $node->isLeaf() ) {

$row = '<tr>';
$row .= '<td>' . $node->title . '/<td>';

$row .= '<td>' . $node->slug . '</td>
    <td>
        <a href="/admin/categories/' . $node->id . '/edit" class="btn btn-success" title="' . trans('kotoba::button.edit') . '">
            <i class="fa fa-pencil fa-fw"></i>
            ' . trans('kotoba::button.edit') . '
        </a>
    </td>
';
$row .= '<tr>';

return $row;

        } else {

$html = '<tr>';
$html .= '<td>' . $node->title . '/<td>';

$html .= '<td>' . $node->slug . '</td>
    <td>
        <a href="/admin/categories/' . $node->id . '/edit" class="btn btn-success" title="' . trans('kotoba::button.edit') . '">
            <i class="fa fa-pencil fa-fw"></i>
            ' . trans('kotoba::button.edit') . '
        </a>
    </td>
';
$html .= '<tr>';

            foreach($node->children as $child)
            {

                $html = $this->renderTable($child);

            }

        }

        return $html;
    }

I know it's dirty, I'm just trying to get it to work :frowning:

At the moment, the table is skipping the parent when a child is present.

I would really appreciate any help or comments :smile:
