Function to generate Categories

Also is there a function to generate the breadcrumbs?

Thanks

FYI i found the following code that helped me with taxonomy usage for caegories..

pasting for anyone else who may read with the same need..

function geodir_taxonomy_breadcrumb() {
	
	$term = get_term_by( 'slug', get_query_var( 'term' ), get_query_var( 'taxonomy' ) );
 	$parent = $term->parent;
	
	while ($parent):
		$parents[] = $parent;
		$new_parent = get_term_by( 'id', $parent, get_query_var( 'taxonomy' ));
		$parent = $new_parent->parent;
	endwhile;
	
	if(!empty($parents)):
		$parents = array_reverse($parents);
		 
		foreach ($parents as $parent):
			$item = get_term_by( 'id', $parent, get_query_var( 'taxonomy' ));
			$url = get_term_link( $item, get_query_var( 'taxonomy' ) ); 
			echo '<li> > <a href="'.$url.'">'.$item->name.'</a></li>';
		endforeach;

	endif;
	 
	echo '<li> > '.$term->name.'</li>';
}
