With the developer edition you can alter the code to display a series of dropwdowns where the first dropdown displays just the parent cats, then after one of them is selected another dropdown appears showing just the children for that cat.

Sorry, login should work now.

Im not sure if this could be made into a module, I would have to take a closer look at the code.

To me, a "module" is something that is either largely stand alone scripts or scripts that use existing built in hooks to alter functionality. Various hooks are scattered throughout the core code of 68C for us 3rd party deleopers to use but in the case I dont beleive the module system will work for this so the change would have to be manually coded which means you would need the developer verion.

Let me take a closer look at it and I will get back to you..
