Answer 1

django-mptt has template tags for displaying tree structures. I'm not sure whether it would be difficult to use them without storing your data as a tree in the database. This could be used to generate markup or json data for some JavaScript tree widgets.

Answer 2

This has nothing to do with Django. You can use any HTML/CSS/Javascript in your templates, so just use any script to create your tree control.

Here is one of jQuery scripts: http://www.boarsoft.com/javascript/dtree/?jdfwkey=97rdf1
