I've created a new tip on Artisteer Help Forums to have in Wordpress a Categories drop down menu in the main navigation:

Here is another example of putting the catagories and Archives in a dropdown on the menu bar. feel free to download and take a look at header.php

I have also done it with recent posts.

Dan,

Thank you very much. I had found another way by creating pages and then using .htaccess to do a 301 redirect, but this works much more dynamically.

A couple of questions, however.

In my test site, http://www.pazumpa.com, I cannot get the tab to show up, but the text does work. I have tried adjusting the <span class="t'>, but I cannot seem to make it work correctly.

Also, I'm not certain how to eliminate the "uncategorized" category.

I would appreciate it if you could tell me how to identify the correct class (I do have firebug, but I don't really know it well, yet.)

Ahh. I got it. I studied your sample page.

I had to add two more span tags to get it to work:
<span><span class="l"></span><span class="r"></span><span class="t">Videos</span></span>


I don't understand why it worked. The span opens and closes with l and r before it gets to t. Why does this work?
