    is there anyway to get the parents of category in an array, so that it can be displayed as a list? using only php or wp builtin functions?

    something like:

    $parentarray = get_category_parents( $cat, TRUE, "" );
foreach ( $parentarray as $postparent ){
    echo "<li>  ". $parentarray ."</li>";
}

    above code doesnt work. anybody got a workaround?
