   On a parent category archive page - I want to have a listing of child level categories only (not grandchild, or great grad child - so a depth of 1), with the category description below. I'm using this PHP function for that:
   <div class="cat-display">

   <?php
   $currentcat = get_query_var('cat');
   $categories=get_categories('child_of=3');
   if ($categories) {
   foreach($categories as $term) {
   echo '
   • ' . $title . 'term_id ) . '" title="' . sprintf( __( "View all posts in %s" ), $term->name ) . '" ' . '>' . $term->name.'

   ';
   echo '<p>' . $term->description .'</p>';
   }
   }
   ?>

   </div>

   But I don't know how to limit the depth to 1 - can anyone help?
   the URL in question:

   Thanks!

   Have you tried parent=3 in this line?
   $categories=get_categories('parent=3');
