Mark, I'd just "select * from info order by category, title" then in a
loop watch for a change in category and print a new heading.


Overkill, but maybe you need two tables?  One for category and one for
links?  Then in (fake) code that abstracts your tables and knows the
relationships between the tables you do:

    for $cat in $category->select_all;
        print $cat;
        for $link in $cat->links {
            print $link;
        }
    }
