Conditional next_ & previous_post_link

    Hi,
    I’m building a website containing a fair amount of posts in different categories.
    I’m using a previous & next post button using the post_link function.
    Browsing through the posts it all works as it should but when I reach the last post of that category the button disappears (which normally is a good thing) but I want the button to turn into a button that takes you back to the category overview.

    The permalinks are setup like this
    localhost/work/2012/postname
    localhost/work/2012/postname2
    localhost/work/2012/postname3
    etc..

    So reaching the last post in the cateogry 2012 should give me a link back to
    localhost/work/2012

    The code I have right now looks like this:

    <?php
previous_post_link('%link', '<div class="arrow-left"></div>', TRUE);
if (empty( $previous_post_link )): ?>
  <a href="<?php echo esc_url( $category_link ); ?>"><div class="arrow-left"></div></a>
<?php endif;
?>

    Does anyone have an idea?

    Thanks!

    Regards
    Marcus

    I figured it out. Here’s the finished code

    <?php if
	(get_adjacent_post(true, '', true)) { 

    }
    else {
		next_post_link('%link', '<div class="arrow-right"></div>', TRUE);    }
  ?>
</li>
<li>
<?php if
	(get_adjacent_post(true, '', true)) {
        previous_post_link('%link', '<div class="arrow-left"></div>', TRUE);
    }
    else {
        echo '<a href="../"><div class="arrow-left"></div></a>';
    }
  ?>
