    an exceedingly dirty way to do this would be to keep a var to which you append the cat name with a sertain separator, then do
    if(hypotheticalVar.indexOf(sep.n...
    // show cat
    }

    ... or, you can do the same kind of dirty hack in a slightly cleaner fashion by populating a catName-named array with, say 1s - like this:

    //in the beginning
    var checkCat = Array();

    //in loop
    if(checkCat[newCat]==1){
    // don't show
    }else{
    //show
    checkCat[newCat] = 1;
    }

    not 100% on the syntax cuz i've been in PHP not AS all day.
