I think it would go something like:
Set up a global like this which produces a list of top-level categories (doesn't inc numbers of links but that should be solvable):
my $tags = shift;
my $cat_db = $DB->table('Category');
$cat_db->select_options ('ORDER BY Name');
my $sth = $cat_db->select ( { FatherID => 0}, ['Full_Name','Name'] );
my $output="";
while (my ($root_cat,$full_name) = $sth->fetchrow_array) {
my $url = $cat_db->as_url($root_cat);
$output .= qq~<a href="$CFG->{build_root_url}/$url/">$full_name</a><BR>\n~;
}
return $output;
}
Then a "simple" pagebuilder page with a template containing nothing other than the tag for that global. Set an appropriate name and path and it should output a file with only the html for your category list.
Bit of magic to put it in the right domain space and it should be eminently SSI-able into another page.
