change

if ($cat=1)

to

if ($cat == 1)

and if I had a $1.00 for every time I did the same thing, we could both retire today to the beach and sip margaritas all day long!

hello esm,thanks for your reply

here is the final code

if ($cat == 1) 
{ 
        $bro_template = "browse2.html"; 
} else {   
        $bro_template = "browse.html"; 
} 

  DisplayTemplate($theme_path.$bro_template,"\$category_path,\$category_path_search_opt,\$category,".
    "\$num_rows,\$pagination,\$cat,\$link,\$content,\$start_number,\$ma,\$editor,\$featured_link");
} 

but how i add more cat in

if ($cat == 1)

if ($cat == 1,2,3)

like that ?

[esm]

the problem is probably with the Display Template function.

DisplayTemplate($theme_path."browse2.html"," \$category_path,\$category_path_search_opt,\$categ
ory,". 
    " \$num_rows,\$pagination,\$cat,\$link,\$content,\$s
tart_number,\$ma,\$editor,\$featured_link,\$hot_li
nks,\$top_votes,\$new_links");

and it is probably caused by vBulletin inserting a line break into the code. vB will only allow 50 characters in arow and then it will insert a line break.

Notice the two lines above:

\$num_rows,\$pagination, \$cat,\$link,\$content,\$s

and

tart_number,\$ma,\$editor, \$featured_link,\$hot_li

they should look more like

\$num_rows, \$pagination, \$cat,\$link, \$content, \$start_number,

and

tart_number, \$ma, \$editor, \$featured_link, \$hot_links,

try this line instead

	
	
DisplayTemplate($theme_path."browse2.html"," \$category_path, \$category_path_search_opt, \$category,".
"\$num_rows,\$pagination,\$cat, \$link,\$content, \$start_number,\$ma, \$editor,\$featured_link, \$hot_links,\$top_votes,\$new_links");

like that ?

if ($cat==1 or $cat==2 or $cat==3) {

or this way is suppose to work also

if ($cat==1 || $cat==2 || $cat==3) {
