I really need some help here. Do explain my problem better I've whipped up a
quick sample site at:
http://playground.doesntexist.org/
As you can see on the site once you clicked on a category *and* select an
item from the archive Web Part both Web Part connections will be applied.
I'm looking for a way to keep them separate. Any ideas? Please!
