PHP 및 MySQL을 사용하여 무제한 중첩 메뉴 시스템을 구축하는 방법: 비재귀적 접근 방식?

<code class="php">function generateMenu($items) {
    $html = '';
    $parent = 0;
    $parentStack = array();

    $children = array();
    foreach ($items as $item) {
        $children[$item['parent_id']][] = $item;
    }

    while (($option = each($children[$parent])) || ($parent > 0)) {
        if (!empty($option)) {
            // 1) Item with children
            if (!empty($children[$option['value']['id']])) {
                $html .= '<li>' . $option['value']['title'] . '</li>';
                $html .= '<ul>';
                array_push($parentStack, $parent);
                $parent = $option['value']['id'];
            }
            // 2) Item without children
            else {

            }
        }

        else {
