I just tried that with the Category: Activists. There is no subcategory name only this B * [+]
Curious, I copied the above 'B * [+]' to my clipboard directly from Wikipedia, and when I pasted it here it included this: 'Bisexual rights activistsloading' This does not appear when I click on it in the encyclopedia.
What could that mean?

Hmmm.... Do you have custom css for Wikipedia? If not, what browser are you using? Do you have javascript enabled?

Rich,
I'm emailing my computer person with your questions now. I'll get back to you as soon as he responds with the answers.
Thanks,
Marc
Update: I'm using 'Internet Explorer' on a Mac; and, yes. Javascript is enabled. It appears I'm due for some software upgrading. At least I know what the problem is now, and that it will be a pain in the ass until I upgrade.
Thanks for your input.
Marc
As Matthew suggested, the subcategories should still be accessible if you click their names rather than the [+]. I don't often use the inline category tree myself, and don't mind loading a few more pages.

The problem with that is the subcategory names are not showing; only the letter (e.g., 'A') and the +.
Thanks,
Marc
