category does not work?

Hi all,

At the frontpage i want to check if a category is selected. If so, it should show a different form. so i included the next lines:
<code>
<txp:if_category name=“Nieuws”> <txp:article_custom form=“default” limit=“3” category=“Nieuws” sortby=“Posted” sortdir=“desc” listform=“default” />
</txp:if_category>
<txp:if_category name=“Agenda”> <txp:article_custom form=“agenda” limit=“100” category=“Agenda” sortby=“Posted” sortdir=“desc” listform=“agenda” />
</txp:if_category>
</code>
I expected that if i for example go to: http://<mysite>/category/Agenda it should show the different form. But it does not work. If i use http://<mysite>/?c=Agenda it does work!
The links to the categories are created by txp selve. Anybody know what i do wrong?

Do you mean that nothing is displayed or that the articles are displayed but with the wrong form?

If i use http://<mysite>/?c=Agenda it does work!

How are the category links generated? With <txp:category_list /> or <txp:category link="1" /> or just with a href= etcetera? If you handcoded them I’d think that you might not be able to use clean url’s. But if they are generated by Textpattern tags that can hardly be the problem.

There are articles displayed but with the wrong form!
The links are generated by Textpattern tags.

<txp:article limit="3" />
</txp:if_category>

<txp:if_category name="Agenda">
<txp:article limit="100" form="agenda" />
