Does a {ALIAS} RT exist?

Please forgive if this is obvious to you... but not to me. Searched everywhere for a simple tag that returns only the category alias that you are currently in. Would be very handy for creating links, plus a nice addition to the {TEASER_EX} tag.

Thanks... :?: :shock:

I guess all you have to do is print [acat_alias] but I'm no good with php...

:idea: Try this..... :idea:

[PHP]
// find alias-name and give back
$alias = $GLOBALS['content']['struct'][($GLOBALS['aktion'][0])]['acat_alias'];
echo $alias;
[/PHP]

That worked perfectly. Can I buy you a beer? Thanks!

Thanks, for the alias of the upper level category I use now:

$alias = $GLOBALS['content']['struct'][($GLOBALS['LEVEL_ID'][3])]['acat_alias'];
echo $alias;

Seems to work.

Cheers, Beppo
