You could try "Baobab", it's a library I recently released.

Brilliant, I will check it out. I knew it was only a matter of time before someone with more skill than me would come out with a good object to manipulate nested sets. I will check it out and see how it goes. Thanks
Damn, where was this link yesterday? Awesome! The forum on your site is pretty thoroughly spammed though.
This library will only work if you use a standard mysqli connection. PDO is not supported.

It's a bit old, and could do with some refactoring, but I found a PHP Class "dbtree" on PHPClasses.org, which seems to do a fair job of it - http://www.phpclasses.org/package/2547-PHP-Manipulate-database-records-in-hierarchical-trees.html

You could use a PHP ORM solution like Propel or Doctrine, they both support nested sets.
