I managed to get around it by calling out each link category with wp_get_linksbyname('categoryname') and formatting the desired html around it.

The problem is, I’m not using the default theme. I’m upgrading my old theme to the new template system, and when using get_links_list(); it adds unneeded H2’s to the output.

well, what if we don’t _want_ h2 tags in our sidebar?

This is extremely annoying, especially with no obvious way of disabling it.

you mean like:

<?php wp_list_cats(); ?>?

That lists them, and users can click on them to see all posts in those categories

ugh:

I’d fix the problems with your page, first, and then see if IE is still messing it up. Though, it _is_ IE, so, it probably will.

That’s because IE is adding a disabled scroll-bar area on the edge of your textbox. I forget how to fix this, but that’s the reason.

It might have something to do with setting the dimensions in CSS and then telling it something different in the <input type='textarea'...> tag.

zeeg, you mean the one browser that doesn’t support it is MSIE?

’cause every other graphical browser out there supports it.

You can set apache to return a content type of application/rss+xml for any document (despite the more appropriate text/rss+xml … as it is text after all).

Though, it all depends on your browser + operating system combination, if the browser doesn’t think anything different of the content-type and decides to display it, it’s hard to just pass it off to an application.

Mozilla/Firefox/et al might need a plugin to do this. And then your operating system would need a default rss-feed reader registered somewhere.

I just don’t see the point. Why not copy the address and paste it into your feed reader? Hell, some even allow drag + drop. The problem is that this ‘draft’ requires a lot of work that really isn’t needed, especially when people don’t have any problems doing it manually now.
