[$category_name_escaped] Do I need it?
Hi all,
Do I need [$category_name_escaped] on every "category", "what's new", "what's cool", etc. page? From the remarks in the script, [$category_name_escaped] has to do with the ADD function. Do I just need it on the "Add..." page?

Thanks for your help!

It also used in the category search Mod.

But do I need it on each different page that is built? On my pages it serves no apparent purpose and just looks ugly. eg. "Bed_and_Breakfasts"

Links does not strip the _'s and /'s from this one variable. (Or at least mine doesn't)

I want Links to be fully functional and just want to know if [$category_name_escaped] provides some of that functionality.

Thanks,
Clark

Ok Widgetz,

You've got me curios... What usefulness will I be forfeiting if I do just take it off my category pages for instance?
