No big deal. It just adds BOLD to category menu that you are browsing so it makes navigation friendlier
in skin1/customer/category.tpl replace the loop=$categories section with

{section name=cat_num loop=$categories}
{if $smarty.get.cat eq $categories[cat_num].categoryid}
{$categories[cat_num].category}
{else} 
{$categories[cat_num].category}
{/if}
{/section}

This looks like a nice mod.....however, I could only find a skin1/customer/categories.tpl file (vs. category.tpl)? I tried it in that template a received this smarty error:

Fatal error: Smarty error: [in customer/categories.tpl line 6]: syntax error: unrecognized tag: {section name=cat_num loop=$categories (Smarty_Compiler.class.php, in /home/bootylou/public_html/Smarty-2.6.9/Smarty.class.php on line 1088

Thoughts?

that was categories.tpl, sorry. I am using 4.0.17 and in there the original does have {section name=cat_num loop=$categories} so I don't know what to tell you.

Are you sure the template has the closing bracket on {section name=cat_num loop=$categories} as in your error example it does not>

here is my complete working template.

{* $Id: categories.tpl,v 1.23 2004/06/24 09:53:29 max Exp $ *}
{capture name=menu}
<div id="categories">
{if $active_modules.Fancy_Categories ne ""}
{include file="`$fancycategories_config.modules_path`/fancy_categories.tpl"}
{else}
{if $config.General.root_categories eq "Y"}
{section name=cat_num loop=$categories} 
{if $smarty.get.cat eq $categories[cat_num].categoryid} 
{$categories[cat_num].category} 
{else} 
{$categories[cat_num].category} 
{/if} 
{/section}
{/if}
{/if}
</div>
{/capture}
{ include file="menu.tpl" dingbats="dingbats_categorie.gif" menu_title=$lng.lbl_categories 

menu_content=$smarty.capture.menu }

Great small mod. To get this working on 4.0.18

{section name=cat_num loop=$categories}
<FONT class="CategoriesList">{$categories[cat_num].category}</FONT>

{/section}
{else} {section name=cat_num loop=$subcategories}
<FONT class="CategoriesList">{$subcategories[cat_num].category}</FONT>


{/section}

With

{section name=cat_num loop=$categories}
{if $smarty.get.cat eq $categories[cat_num].categoryid}
{$categories[cat_num].category}

{else}
{$categories[cat_num].category}

{/if}
{/section}

NOTE: I added in the two
tags so that each new category would be on a new line, remove them and them will all be inline!
Thanks again!
