categories left column not show up

Hi
For my test Zen store, I downloaded a template package. How does it come that the left column with vertical categories does not show up.
I have tried to fix this with Layout settings > main page - opens with category
and changed the value from 0 to the name of my category, which is Test.

When I then go to the browser it loads the homepage and for one single second I see a glimp of a left column box where my categories should be in.
Can anyone help me

it was less then a second:-)

Where and from whom did you download the template?

A link to your site would be helpful.

I found the template here:http://(sorry, site offline)/138/index.php?main_page=index&template_dir=zj_silver
but on that site it is displayed with left column.

It looks like something is blokking it. When I return to the homepage, I sometimes see
loading a place, for a millisecond ,that should be a left column

I fixed it by goiing to Layout Boxes controller and set category to ON
