Older / Newer articles, restricted by categories?

I’m using TextPattern as to build my portfolio, and have different types of work (print, web, ect) listed in different categories. I’m using rss_unlimited_categories to allow for multiple categories. I’m trying to create a “next” and “previous” button so people can browse the portfolio pieces using the following code:

<txp:link_to_prev showalways=“0”>Prv</txp:link_to_prev> /
<txp:link_to_next showalways=“0”>Nxt</txp:link_to_next>

(Page example: http://thinblackglasses.com/madscience/osaka-brand-guidelines ). The problem I’m having is it reads the articles in all categories, I want to restrict it to just 1. Is there a way of doing this? Thank you!

Nice design.
Why don’t you use sections for the portfolio “categories” just curious.

maybe just use the exclude attribute with a section list tag.

oh or this plug in is handy: cbs_navigation_menu
