I'm trying to get the slug of the current posts category while inside of the loop. I feel like pulling my hair out because something that should be simple is turning out to be a big pain.
Is there something really easy I'm missing? How can I do this?
Ultimately I'm using the category slug name to output to match with a css class name for styling purposes. Please help!
$category = get_the_category();
$cat_=name = $category[0]->cat_name;http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/get_the_category
if you would add post_class() to the post div, you would automatically get all sorts of category and tag specific css classes:

Thanks! This worked perfectly!
$category = get_the_category();
$cat_=name = $category[0]->cat_name;You must log in to post.
