Hi,
Since some shops specialise in one thing, but 'also' do another, such as HMV stocking a small amount of Books as well as CD's.
A way to help categorise between shops that specialise in certain things, and shops that have them as an afterthought could go as follows.
I'm using the 'Category Bookshops' from the Nottingham guide as an example. (http://nottingham.openguides.org/?action=index;index_type=category;index_val...)
Waterstone's would appear top, as on the edit page 'Bookshops' was entered as a 'Primary Category' HMV would appear below all the ones that had 'Bookshops' in the primary category box. For HMV, 'Bookshops' would be entered in the 'Secondary Category' textbox.
The page would layout as follows:
--------------------
Node List - Category Bookshops
Page45 WHSmith, Lister Gate WHSmith, Nottingham Station WHSmith, Victoria Centre Waterstone's, Bridlesmith Gate Waterstone's, Wheeler Gate
Also see: FOPP HMV, Lister Gate HMV, Victoria Centre Virgin Megastore

I think this is a good idea, and I encouraged Joe to send it to the list.
It would be nice and easy to implement, and it could tie in to the search weighting too.
For anyone wanting to get into OpenGuides coding, this would make a nice first project. I'd be happy to mentor.
