 Ahhh... good catch, My test installation did not have enough categories to
 test this - sorry for the oversight. I have reproduced this and have
 worked out another possible solution. I appears that the conditional
 statement ''may'' be able to be reduced. I have tested the following code
 in all known scenarios with success. It should replace the code I
 originally posted (Sorry, but I do not know how to make the .diff files
 yet - if I even have permissions for that kind of thing - new to all this)
