   Okay so here is the problem. I have this code to hide the list unless a child cat is present - works great thank you guys for that! But is it possible to hide even the containing div? Cuase as of right now it just has the "Sub-Menu" text with nothing under it and it looks out of place on pages without children - i.e. home page. Any help would rock!!!
   Thanks,
   Matt

   <div class="interior">
   			<ul class="tabs">
   					<li class="cat"><a href="#tab-cat">Sub-Menu</a></li>
   			</ul>
   			<div class="tabcontent" id="tab-blr">
   <ul>
     <?php
     global $id;
     wp_list_pages("title_li=&amp;child_of=$id&amp;show_date=modified
     &amp;date_format=$date_format"); ?>
   </ul>
   			</div>

   Hi

   check this parameter of wp_list_pages -- echo

   echo (boolean)
   Toggles the display of the generated list of links or return the list as an HTML text string to be used in PHP. The default value is 1 (display the generated list items). Valid values:

   * 1 (true) - default
   * 0 (false)

   move your wp_list_pages statement before the containing div like this
   

   <?php
   $list = wp_list_pages("title_li=&amp;child_of=$id&amp;show_date=modified&amp;date_format=$date_format&amp;echo=0"); ?>
   
   if ($list) { ?>
      <div class="interior">

   What this means is the output from wp_list_pages gets stored in the variable $list instead of being displayed on the screen.

   The if ($list) says, if there is a value in $list then display the following code, otherwise don't.

   The code looks like this

   `<?php
   global $id;
   $list = wp_list_pages("title_li=&child_of=$id&show_date=modified&date_format=$date_format&echo=0"); ?>
   if ($list) { ?>
   <div class="interior">
   <ul class="tabs">
   <li class="cat">Sub-Menu

   <div class="tabcontent" id="tab-blr">

   <?php
   echo $list; ?>

   </div>
   <?php } ?>

   By the way, one of your div's is not closed.

   I didn't test this code but it should work or be very close to working.
   The "echo $list" displays the output that was stored at the top from the wp_list_pages statement.

   let me try again with code...

   <?php
   global $id;
   $list = wp_list_pages("title_li=&amp;child_of=$id&amp;show_date=modified&amp;date_format=$date_format&amp;echo=0"); ?>
   if ($list) { ?>
     <div class="interior">
       <ul class="tabs">
         <li class="cat"><a href="#tab-cat">Sub-Menu</a></li>
       </ul>
        <div class="tabcontent" id="tab-blr">
   
       <ul>
         <?php echo $list ?>
       </ul>
     </div>
   <?php } ?>
