 Following is the information regarding the API call for creating a
 category. I am passing an existing "category id" as "parent" but still the
 parent is being saved as "0" every-time. I also tried sending the category
 name in "parent" parameter but still the same response.


 Web API reference URL :
 http://developer.wordpress.com/docs/api/1/post/sites/%24site/categories/slug:%24category/

 Api call executed in code :

 Request Parameter sent : "
 "name=wordpressCateg1&description=wordpressCateg1%20description&parent=253242504"

 Response Text :
 "{"ID":257746312,"name":"wordpressCateg1","slug":"wordpresscateg1","description":"wordpressCateg1
 description","post_count":0,

 "parent":0,...}}}"
