I’ve been racking my brain thinking about how to get child categories of a specific category. And I think I’ve just figured it out.
Examine all of the other categories in a complete list, and grab all of them that have the current page’s URL at the start. The next word will be the sub-category .
Of course, knowing how to split stuff in Smarty is a bit difficult. I was thinking in JavaScript…

I need a simple wrapper for a Mozilla/Safari and IE compatible XMLHttpRequest().
Perhaps something like (courtesy of Apple):
function loadXMLDoc(url,method,readyFunc) {
req = false;
if (method) method = "GET";
// branch for native XMLHttpRequest object
if(window.XMLHttpRequest) {
try {
req = new XMLHttpRequest();
} catch(e) {
req = false;
}
// branch for IE/Windows ActiveX version
} else if(window.ActiveXObject) {
try {
req = new ActiveXObject("Msxml2.XMLHTTP");
} catch(e) {
try {
req = new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP");
} catch(e) {
req = false;
}
}
}
if(req) {
req.onreadystatechange = readyFunc;
req.open(method, url, true);
req.send("");
}
return req;
}

Apparently, document.documentURI and document.location are not identical. Basically, document.location is not a string, so to treat it like one, you need to do:
(document.location+"").split("/")
Instead of:
document.documentURI.split("/")
Stupid IE.
