   I know I've done something stupid with PHP but I just can't get this to work.

   <?php if (is_category('this')) { ?>
   DO THIS
   <?php } elseif (is_category('that')) { ?>
   DO THAT
   <?php } else { } ?>

   This is always returning DO THIS no matter which category the post is in. And no matter whether I try ID numbers or the category slug.

   This is within a loop that is only showing the first post of one of two categories. It starts like this:

   <?php query_posts('showposts=1&cat=3,5');?>
         <?php if (have_posts()) : while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>

   Any ideas what I'm doing wrong?

   Try it with: in_category('this')
   Just guessing but give it a shot

   That worked!

   keesiemeijer, that's probably the 4th time you've really helped me out. I really appreciate it. I just don't know what to say!

   No problem. I'm glad you got it working.
