Well, that thing about category-xx.php was something new to me, thanks. And category no. means its ID, right? As for 4kB webspace, lol :D @Karthik: No problem whatsoever about long comments – I love ‘em!

And you did this 2 days earlier - guess it was a repeat for you to read my feed then! [Goes over to subscribe to your feed] But I'd just like to make one clarification though - you won't need category.php if you have archive.php or index.php (err, you'd certainly have this one!). What I meant was - if you are going to show excerpts on index.php, you can avoid having archive.php and category.php altogether - don't ask me why not, saves you 4kb on your webspace ;) The order is: 1. category-xx.php 2. category.php 3. archive.php 4. index.php If you'd like to make one particular category look unique, you can create a file with the category-CATEGORYNUMBER.php and that particular category would follow this template. If it doesn't find this file, it will check if the next file in the hierarchy is there and so on. Sorry about the overly long comment, I had to make myself clear!
