    Hello !

    I tried to set an anchor from the menu placed in the header with several categories.
    When I click on these, I want the page be placed automatically to the matching article.

    In the header.php, I placed this excerpt of code :

    <a href="debut"><?php wp_list_cats('sort_column=name&hierarchical=1') ?></a>

    and in the category.php :

    <a name="debut" id="debut"><div id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>" class="<?php sandbox_post_class(); ?>"></a>

    Many thanks for your help !

    You cannot do that…

    Actually, I can’t.
    There’s no solution ?

    Let’s get back to the basics…
    1. For WP 2.3.3 – that’s the wrong template tag, it has been deprecated! see > Template_Tags/wp_list_cats
    2. You should check your source code to see what the output of that tag is:
    it is a list of all your categories like

    <li class="categories"><h2>Categories</h2>
<ul>
<li class="cat-item cat-item-5"><a href="http://example.com/category/whatever/" title="View all posts filed under Whatever">Whatever</a>
</li>
<li class="cat-item cat-item-4"><a href="http://example.com/category/another/" title="View all posts filed under Another">Another</a>
</li>
	<ul class='children'>
	<li class="cat-item cat-item-3"><a href="http://example.com/category/another/its-child/" title="View all posts filed under Its Child">Its Child</a>
</li>

    3. Now, what you did: you placed an anchor tag around the WHOLE list above… which is nonsense. Do you see it now?
