Where is the category/product stored?

[Mike Harmon]

Category and product *can* have the same id because they are separate things.

They are stored in tables - the product id is in the table "products," and the category id(s) for each product, is in the table products_to_categories. The categories themselves are stored in the table "categories." If you use phpMyAdmin to examine your database, you can look at all these tables.

I looked in my database. I do have the catagories listed but do not have folder called "Products" The last folder in the list is "newsletter".
It seems the tables are listed alphabetically and stops t the N.

The site is working except for Special tabs no working..

Any clue what is happening with the database display?
