 * When finished this should be able to run in the sidebar/ as widget.
 * The following code should work. What am I overlooking?
 *     ```
       <h2><?php single_cat_title() ?></h2>
   
       <?php
       $categoryvariable=$cat; // assign the variable as current category
        $query= 'cat=' . $categoryvariable. '&orderby=date&order=ASC'; // concatenate the query
        query_posts($query); // run the query
       if ($myposts):
       foreach ($myposts as $post):
       setup_postdata($post);
       the_title();
       endforeach;
       else :
       // Nothing Found
       endif;
       ?>
       ```
   
 * Thank you

 * Solution:
 * This works to show the post titles of the current category on a category page(
   in 2.5)
