 * Hi there,
 * I have build a custom query_post.
    In code it looks to every category after /
   catetory/ in the url. With my query I want posts that have ALL that categories.
 * I know I have to work with ‘category__and’ in this case, but the strange thing
   is, that, with two or more categories, it also returns posts that have one of
   that categories.
 * For example see: [http://gamesscore.nl/category/playstation-3/actie/](http://gamesscore.nl/category/playstation-3/actie/)
   
   I have print the query_post on the page. It’s:
 * category__and=6,32&caller_get_posts=1&orderby=&order=DESC&gdsr_sort=&gdsr_order
   =&paged=0&posts_per_page=10
 * But it return also a post that not has category 32 (actie).
 * What am I doing wrong???

 * you need to use the array syntax –
 * there is an example under [http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/query_posts#Combining_Parameters](http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/query_posts#Combining_Parameters)
