Tabbed Sidebar help

So…let’s say I want each link category to display on a different tab… how do I do THAT?

You consult the gurus.
Ok… that’s what I thought I WAS doing 🙂
Seriously…. I’m using the MTDEWVIRUS tabbed sidebar hack. And surely there is a way for each category of links to display seperately?
http://www.mariebraden.comWhat you are referring to is very cutting edge advanced css. Why not consult
the expertsHm…. I figured it was something to do with the PHP/MSQL query string?
The layout part isn’t the problem, it’s setting up the url so it only shows ONE category….We are struggling slightly. Not being complete of course there is no uri. But nevertheless, these types of links do not need altering of the php (heaven forbid).
Even display itself can be controlled in CSS. That way there is only one call on the server and a nice clean flyout effect.Uhm… ok… I get ya, I think? That currently, there is no way WITHIN the WP code to send a string that would ONLY return the one category of links? Except that it can be done with categories, I think? I’m confused
No that is not right. with a modest adjustment to the php you can call whatever you like. But that was not anything like your original question.
You’re quite right, the “How do I make each link category display on a different tab?” made sense only to me. LOL
What I am trying to do IS to call the PHP to show ONE category on each tab. I have the tabs all set up, except for the LINK that I need to call 🙂
Now does it make more sense? LOLAh well. What you need now is someone who knows php. Include me out. 😉
Darn it 🙂
Oh, I needed (and have received) information on what I should use as the link to the php to make just one category show up on each tab.
Do you see what I have in the top of my page ?

That can easily made to look like a tab !!
Thanks,
SadishGuys – what the person is looking for the code that you use to call JUST ONE category. That’s ALL that the person is looking for.
Anonymous, go to this url: http://wiki.wordpress.org/list_cats – and note that there is an option in the arguments to “exclude.” All you have to do is add the arguments to the<?php list_cats(); ?>
tag. An example would look like:
<?php list_cats(0,'','','','',1,0,0,0,0,false,'',2); ?>
– which supplies a value – even if it’s a sort of non-value for all the arguments up to “categories” – in this example, the category that would be displayed is “2.”
Er, at least I think that would do it – but again, visit the url I gave you – and it should help you figure out how to display just one category at a time. 😀Heh. Note that you’d have to repeat the process for each category you wanted to display. And, that “2” is the category ID, and not the name of the category.
I hope that helps, and I THINK that was what you were looking for.
??? 🙂Bah. I don’t think that’s going to work for you either. Nevermind. Remind me not to answer questions when I have not had nearly enough sleep.
SORRY! 😀
