[RESOLVED] How to browse a category?

Did anyone work out yet how to get further pages in a category by clicking on "next 200" (or whatever number it is that you have specified)? For some reason I can’t get past the first group of results, as clicking on the link for "next 200 pages" achieves nothing. I’ve tried it with different skins and in different browsers, but the site just hangs.

As far as I can see, I'm using the latest versions of my extensions (SMW extensions, Extension:CategoryTree, etc.). Note that the category function in Semantic Drilldown and Wikipedia’s TOC templates for categories, or at least some of them, are working fine.

Using the latter provides an elegant solution for categories containing over 200 pages, so no real harm is done. But it's an odd bug which I haven't seen before and which seems worth bringing up if anyone else has bumped into the same thing.

Please give a link to the wiki.

I just found out that Extension:CategoryTree was causing the issue, possibly because it may not have been updated at the time to suit MW 1.17's new way of handling javascript through ResourceLoader. That's been sorted though, so this topic can be marked as resolved.
