   How can I edit this page so that it excludes category 6?

   This is the page code:
   

   <?php if (is_category()) { ?>
   			<h1  class="head" ><?php echo get_option('ptthemes_browsing_category'); ?> <?php echo single_cat_title(); ?> </h1>  
   
   			<?php } elseif (is_day()) { ?>
   			<h1  class="head"><?php echo get_option('ptthemes_browsing_day'); ?> <?php the_time('F jS, Y'); ?> </h1>
   
   			<?php } elseif (is_month()) { ?>
   			<h1  class="head"><?php echo get_option('ptthemes_browsing_month'); ?> <?php the_time('F, Y'); ?> </h1>
   
   			<?php } elseif (is_year()) { ?>
   			<h1  class="head"><?php echo get_option('ptthemes_browsing_year'); ?> <?php the_time('Y'); ?> </h1>
   
   			<?php } elseif (is_author()) { ?>
   			<h1  class="head"><?php echo get_option('ptthemes_browsing_author'); ?> <?php echo $curauth->nickname; ?> </h1>
   
   			<?php } elseif (is_tag()) { ?>
   			<h1  class="head"><?php echo get_option('ptthemes_browsing_tag'); ?> <?php echo single_tag_title('', true); ?> </h1>
   
   			<?php }elseif($_REQUEST['page']=='Blog'){ ?>
               <h1  class="head"><?php echo $_REQUEST['page'];?> </h1>
               <?php }?>
   
                   <div class="breadcrumb clearfix">
                   	<?php if ( get_option( 'ptthemes_breadcrumbs' )) { yoast_breadcrumb('',' &raquo; Blog'); } ?>
                   </div>
   
               <?php
   			if(isset($_GET['author_name'])) :
   			$curauth = get_userdatabylogin($author_name);
   			else :
   			$curauth = get_userdata(intval($author));
   			endif;
   		?>
           <?php
   
   		if(!is_category())
   		{
   			$totalpost_count = 0;
   			$limit = 1000;
   			$blogCategoryIdStr = get_inc_categories("cat_exclude_");
   			query_posts('showposts=' . $limit . '&cat='.$blogCategoryIdStr);
   			if(have_posts())
   			{
   				while(have_posts())
   				{
   					 the_post();
   					$totalpost_count++;
   				}
   			}
   		}
   
   		?>
   
       <?php if (is_paged()) $is_paged = true; ?>
   
   			<?php if(have_posts()) : ?>
   
   			<?php
   			if(!is_category())
   			{
   				global $posts_per_page,$paged;
   				$limit = $posts_per_page;
   				$paged = (get_query_var('paged')) ? get_query_var('paged') : 1;
   				$blogCategoryIdStr = get_inc_categories("cat_exclude_");
   				query_posts('showposts=' . $limit . '&paged=' . $paged .'&cat='.$blogCategoryIdStr);
   			}
   			while(have_posts()) : the_post() ?>
   
                   <div id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>" class="posts">
   
   					<div class="post_top">

                       </div>
   
   					<?php if (( get_post_meta($post->ID,'image', true) ) && (get_option( 'ptthemes_timthumb_all' )) ) { ?>
   
                           <a title="Link to <?php the_title(); ?>" href="<?php the_permalink() ?>"><img src="<?php echo bloginfo('template_url'); ?>/thumb.php?src=<?php echo get_post_meta($post->ID, "image", $single = true); ?>&h=95&w=95&zc=1&q=80<?php echo $thumb_url;?>" alt="<?php the_title(); ?>" class="fll" style="margin-right:10px; margin-bottom:10px" /></a>

               </div>
   
               <?php endif; ?>

   Assuming you want prevent any posts from Category 6 displaying on any page (unless it's the category6 page), you'll need to edit the arguments in the query_posts() function.

   I personally don't use any of the cat_exclude stuff, so you may be able to get away without having that whole $blogCategoryIDStr variable.

   I would just make your query_posts look something like this for whatever pages you want to exclude category 6 from.....

   query_posts('cat=-6');

   you can set that up in particular IF statements, like....

   <?php if ( is_home() )
        {
             query_posts('cat=-6');
        }
   ?>

   it's the '-' in front of the 6 that excludes that particular category ID from the loop
