   I am trying to print out the name of the top level categories. i have some categories that have 10 children. the code i am using is the following.

   $category = get_the_category();
   $current_category = get_cat_name($category[0]->category_parent);
   echo $current_category;

   While this seems to work for the first child in the tree any below show up blank.

   Thanks in advance for your help!

   The depth=1 parameter with the template tag, wp_list_bookmarks(), will display all 'top level' cats.
