 * nothing is happening when i type the following functions:
 * > `<?php wp_get_archives(‘type=daily&limit=10’); ?>
   > <? php wp_get_links(); ?>
   > <?php wp_list_cats(0, ”, ‘name’, ‘asc’, ”, 1, 0, 1, 1, 1, 1, 0,”,”,”,”,”) ?
   > >`
 * i’ve tried the functions on their own and within UL/LI.
    is there a specific 
   CSS syntax these functions require?
 * [Here’s a picture](http://www.marlonvalenzuela.net/upload/mytheme.jpg). You will
   see that there’s no output. For some reason it tells me there are no categories??
   there are two?
 * [Here’s a picture with the default theme.](http://www.marlonvalenzuela.net/upload/default.jpg)
   You can see that I do have categories…
 * Please advise.

 * An easier questions is, why wouldn’t **<? php wp_get_links(); ?>** output anything?

 * I’ve been doing more test and i still get no results. I’ve downloaded other themes
   to see their CSS and still nothing works… i must have deleted some call or function
   that its not allowing me to see anything.
 * what’s required when using a function like:
    <?php get_archives(‘postbypost’,
   10); ?>
