   Hi there,

   I'm trying to make a few option pages in admin where each submenu item in the options menu is a category. In each of these category subpages I want a list of all the posts in the category and display some short info based on meta values in a table. Here's what i have so far; I have populated the submenus with the categories, but I'm stuck trying to pull the posts from the category when opening the page.

   <?php
   function admin_styles() {
   	wp_enqueue_style('admin_styles', get_bloginfo('template_url').'/lib/styles/custom-admin.css', false, '1.0', false);
   }	
   
   // Adding the menu pages
   add_action('admin_menu', 'add_submenus');
   add_action('admin_print_styles', 'admin_styles');
   
   function add_submenus() {
   
       // add top level menu:
       add_menu_page('Oversigt', 'Oversigt', 'administrator', 'oversigt', 'create_main_menu');
   
   	// get categories and make submenus
     	$categories = get_categories();
     	foreach ($categories as $category) {
   	    add_submenu_page('oversigt', 'sub menu' , $category->cat_name , 'administrator', $category->category_nicename , 'add_sub_menu_content' );
     	}
   }
   
   function create_main_menu() {
   	echo "<div class='wrap'><h2>Oversigt</h2></div>";
   }
   
   // Creating content for the submenu pages
   function add_sub_menu_content() {
   	global $post;
   
    	// get all rooms in current category
    	$rooms = get_posts('category=1&numberposts=150');
    	sort($rooms);
   ?>	
   
   	<div class="wrap">
   		<!-- Doing too much stuff with the posts to display here -->
   	</div>	
   
   <?php } ?>

   I need to make this line get the current category you are in:

   $rooms = get_posts('category=1&numberposts=150');

   Hoping someone can help me with this! If it's possible at all..

   many thanks!!!
