I was looking and looking for this functionality, and its almost perfect. (hint to dev.)
We all have a main menu, which always shows. But on a busy site with lots of pages - when you are creating content, what you don't want to have to worry about is creating more menu links.
There is no need with ArtCats. It will generate a dynamic menu that offers the best menu options for you based on where you are. At top level it will show you a list of sections, when you select a section it will display the categories in that section. Select a category and you see the articles in the category (and it does it all automatically).
There are filters to work for certain sections and categories too, if you don't want it on every page.
My only reservation is that when I click on the article itself - the module renders nothing. Just a blank. I would prefer that it still showed the category listing for that category. I had a look and could work out how to hack it to get it to do it :(. I hope that this is available soon and then I'd recommend this mod for every 1.5 site.

This is a fabulous component, I only wish I could get it to work properly!
I was new to the whole idea of ical, but now I am convinced this is essential content for my sites. This component displays the calanders, looks great and is totally intuitive to use. Its a breeze to set up too.
I just have problems on my sites because I also use the 'tags' component and its matching Xajax plugin. There seems to be some incompatibility between these and Iwebcal that I am trying to resolve - I hope I can.

Sorry to hear about the Xajax conflict; hopefully the original author can provide some insight as to why this happens.

Thanks for this, I would never have come across Chatango without it. Now I have a free online chat helpline on my site.
One small problem, was that the font size variable didn't work in module control. It was an easy edit in mod_chatago.php to add the "f=" variable taht had been missed in the code.
