If you want all in one select box than you need to make a recursive function which call itself and fetch sub category untill reached last level.

Either you can used the recursive function as suggested by Atif or you can use AJAX to reach at certain level. AJAX will be more efficient technique as in this way you are just loading required data.

In this case, you will have to check if the current ID has been used as parent or no. If yes, run the query to find its child. Most probably, you will be writing a recursive function to achieve this.

But that means for each level I have to do a select query, and I don’t know how many levels are there, it should be unlimited so how do I do that ??

Hi,
Top most element don't have parent so it's partent_id is 0. Your first query is
Select * from hosp_categories where parent_id = '0'
This will give you the top elements which you can loop and shows in <select.
Once the user select any of the element in Top <select you have to pass it's
id in query string and run the following query to load the child,
select * from hosp_categories where parent_id = '$ID FROM QUERY STRING'
This will give you the list of child of selected which you can easily show in
<select. Same procedure is follow for next level of category. You can go
till n level with this approach.
Thanks
