[support] customizing the taxonomy page - *taxonomy context*

[Sten]

Thanks for the good advice, Laura! The 1st point was easy to do. The 
rest seems like very good advice as well.
Unfortunately I'm stuck with using taxonomy context though as I can't 
make the description show up, maybe because of a problem with that module.

http://drupal.org/node/37690
also has a description of this problem. I have tried different themes 
including bluemarine and putting in the code suggested in the last 
comment, but to no avail. The description simply won't show up. I now 
has all options set to enable, but can't see a thing happening. Any one 
else who is using taxonomy context?
