Brian,

there are a lot of [if...] tag. Get the minivend.html (all in one file)
and search for "[if" and you can see a lot of different [if...] tags. If
you are using some stuff of codes inside a loop tags, maybe

-----snip------
[if-loop-data table field] IF [else] ELSE [/else][/if-loop-field]

     Outputs the IF if the field in table is non-empty, and the ELSE (if
any) otherwise. 

     NOTE: This tag does not nest with other [if-loop-data ...] tags. 
[if-loop-field field] IF [else] ELSE [/else][/if-loop-field]

     Outputs the IF if the field in the products table is non-empty, and
the ELSE (if any) otherwise. 

     NOTE: This tag does not nest with other [if-loop-field ...] tags. 
-----snip------

make this, what you want. Before you use any if constructions, check
your codes, whether you get any values. After that, try to use the if
conditions. If there are no success, try

[set name="dummy" interpolate=1][box-code][/set]

then

[if scratch dummy =~ /Categories/]

or

[if scratch dummy eq Categories]

I hope, this helps you!

Regards,

	Joachim
