Please help with Categories.php box changes

[ecopeia]

Currently, my categories.php box is displayed as such:

 

Main Category

Sub-cat

Sub-cat

--------space

Main Category

Sub-cat

Sub-cat

 

Please someone help me to do these three things:

 

1. Indent sub-categories

2. Add a bullet ONLY to cat/sub-cat selected

3. The top category link doesn't work properly. If I navigate to a sub-category, then try to click on the top category, it doesn't go anywhere...it just keeps showing me the sub-category.

 

The only one that is actually DIRE is #3...

 

I know there are tree contribs, and in fact, I am using Show Sub-categories contrib, but I need slight tweaks and can't find a support thread. I have searched this forum, google, osdox and every dang where and can't find an answer. I've found contributions that somewhat do what I want it to do, but none fit my needs!! Grrr...

 

Here is my categories.php code:

// Preorder tree traversal
 function preorder($cid, $level, $foo, $cpath)
 {
   global $categories_string, $HTTP_GET_VARS;

// Display link
   if ($cid != 0) {
     for ($i=0; $i<$level; $i++)
       $categories_string .=  '   ';
     $categories_string .= '<a href="' . tep_href_link(FILENAME_DEFAULT, 'cPath
=' . $cpath . $cid) . '">';
// 1.6 Are we on the "path" to selected category?
     $bold = strstr($HTTP_GET_VARS['cPath'], $cpath . $cid . '_') ||  $HTTP_GET_VARS['cPath'] == $cpath . $cid;
// 1.6 If yes, use <b>
     if ($bold)
       $categories_string .=  '<b>';
     $categories_string .=  $foo[$cid]['name'];
     if ($bold)
       $categories_string .=  '</b>';
     $categories_string .=  '</a>';
// 1.4 SHOW_COUNTS is 'true' or 'false', not true or false
     if (SHOW_COUNTS == 'true') {
       $products_in_category = tep_count_products_in_category($cid);
       if ($products_in_category > 0) {
         $categories_string .= ' (' . $products_in_category . ')';
       }
     }
$categories_string .= '<br>';    }

// Traverse category tree- this is for older snapshots pre-November 2002
/*    foreach ($foo as $key => $value) {
     if ($foo[$key]['parent'] == $cid) {
//        print "$key, $level, $cid, $cpath<br>";
       preorder($key, $level+1, $foo, ($level != 0 ? $cpath . $cid . '_' : ''))
;
     } */
// Function used for post November 2002 snapshots
 function tep_show_category($counter) {
   global $foo, $categories_string, $id;

   for ($a=0; $a<$foo[$counter]['level']; $a++) {
     $categories_string .= "  ";
   }
   }
 }
