COntinous category List

  #1  
Mar 18th, 2008
Hello,

It has been quite some time since I have done any .xml/.xsl work

My current site displays the contents of the category (only) when clicked. What I need it to do is display a Long list of all content from all categories seperated by Category heading. Also when a specific category is clicked it will need jump down the page to the proper heading.

This is read from the master .xml or as stated below vol_issue

Code for vol_issue file.
