Hi,

I want to have classifieds for several countries. Each country has several Federal States. I’m using CCK. I want the users to first select a state (like USA). Then the user should see a list of the Federal States of this state.

How can I do this? In the frontend I want to have a nice navigation like state -> federal state -> category -> node

Thanx for any advice.

It supports a taxonomy any way you want to define it. And you won't need CCK.

Thank you for the advice. I'd like to stick to CCK because it's more flexible.

I just thought you might like to have a known working solution that someone else has to maintain.

CCK can still be used to extend existing node types with additional fields, and I'd assume that the Classifieds are nodes. The only difference (as far as I know) is that you won't be able to access the native, non-CCK fields of the node in Views.

The upside of using CCK is that you can customize pretty much everything yourself. The downside is that you frequently have to.
