get_category_count

Code:
sub { 
  return $DB->table('Category')->select( ['Number_of_Links'], { ID => $_[0] } )->fetchrow; 
}

call with:

<%get_category_count($ID)%>

(where $ID is the category ID)

Cheers

Did you copy it over right? Shouldn't have any spaces before "sub {" and after the last "}"

The code should be fine - can't see anything wrong with it.

Thanks for another cool little global.

P.S.. It would be really annoying now to even think about setting up an interesting GLinks based site without all the globals you have created.

Thanks again.

Thanks - its amazing how much easier it is for me too, using the ULTRAGlobals functions - saves me a ton of time writing / finding globals on the forum =)
