    I’m creating a dymanicallly generated horizontal dropdown menu (based off of the son of suckerfish [http://www.htmldog.com/articles/suckerfish/dropdowns/] combined with wp_list_cats() function), and I have it completely working except that I need to add a small CSS controlled background-image to the categories that have subcategories.

    All the CSS is correct, and I even know where to add the conditional statement in the template-functions-category.php file. I just don’t know how to write the conditional so that class=”daddy” is applied when a category has subcategories.

    The closest thing I’ve found was made by maerk, found here and here:

    My head is exploding after way to many hours of research and hacking around. I would greatlly appriciate any advice and guidance available.

    Thank you for your time and assistance.
