I think you read 'parent key method' in a magazine and have no idea what it means. I sure have no idea what you mean. Databases use indexes and keys to join values between tables. Good database design is the same no matter what your project, and there's nothing about a web based presentation layer that should ever impact on what your database design is or should be.
