Thanks for this – that’s exactly the problem I’m faced with but I’ve no idea where I’m supposed to insert that code? It’s on the widgets.php file that the “Display categories widget” resides on but I can’t see any mention of any of the code that it talks about on that site? Any ideas?
Sorry that isn’t for a widget, but rather code you would put in your theme’s sidebar.php.

Okay, thanks. Looks like I’ve got a fair bit of reading to do to resolve this issue – I would have thought it would be incredibly simple to add the amount of posts within the link tag?!
Okay, I almost managed to do this. In the classes.php (in the wp_includes folder) I changed the line from:
$link .= $cat_name . '';
to
$link .= $cat_name ;
This seems to work in all browsers with the exception of IE6 as it seems to mess up the formatting of the sidebar?!
Sorry, I can’t seem to write that post without it messing up the formatting – the ” should be a closing link tag.
Has anybody got any ideas on how to do this?
Does anyone know why with the method I mentioned a few posts ago why this would function perfectly okay in all browsers except IE6 – If IE6 didn’t exist then I would have found the answer but as it does then I need to figure out a different way.
I’m amazed nobody else is experiencing this or wanting to do what I’m wanting to do. Anyone?
