Hi iridiax,
I’m doing the same thing, but I don’t know how to get the value for $cat, the documentation says it is supposed to be an integer for the category to get the parents and it defaults to the current category… but how can the *first* parameter of a function have a default value? I’ve tried NULL and false and 0 but they all produce emptyness.

I’m not sure, I haven’t used tags… take another example:

Cooking
-Mexican
-Italian
-French
TV Industry Guidelines
-Programming
-Advertising
Languages
-English
-Spanish
-French
Programming
-Languages
-Software
-Hardware
Internet How-Tos
-Email
-Web Design
-Advertising
-Searching

Ok, so the topics might seem unrelated but I wanted to demonstrate how the category names can be the same but have completely different meanings. Also the same named categories may not be at the same level in the category hierarchy.

I think tags are useful for searching so it may be acceptable that the same tag be used for dissimilar topics, but I don’t see how you can easily use that to categorise and sort your posts by category so readers can find them hierarchically.

Any thoughts?
