how to remove "Latest ad" from showing

One thing has been keeping me up a little.

How do I remove the Latest Listings form the catnav.

If I remove the line below from index.php, then the next category in line will NOT be highlighted by default.
<li<?php if ( is_home() ) { echo " class=\"current-cat\""; } ?>><?php _e('Latest Listings','cp'); ?>

As a fallback, then I was gonna add a category field to the main view. that way people would se witch category a ad belongs to under Latest Listings.

But I also fail at this, as I am unable to find what value to call. I have tried ""cat" "category" "categories" "post_cat"
I think I am on the wrong track here somewhere. PLEASE HELP

Sincerely
Magnus

If I get you right, then removing the latest listings tab will not highlight the next selection because it's category pages from there on, you'd have to change the index.php loop to either pull from the first category instead of the latest listings, or somehow use 'if is home' with http://codex.wordpress.org/Template_...ist_categories.

I have been trying that back and forth.
I just cant get my head around this. I just dont know those commands so much.

Today. with some rest hehehe. I was sucessful in making a new col. in main view with category names in there.
I would mostly still be able to get rid of the latest Listings tab all together. and have the home to show the content from cat 1.

I did the following.
fx. in the price col. put this instead.

<span class="price">
<?php $category = get_the_category();
$parent = get_cat_name($category[0]->category_parent);
if (!empty($parent))
{ echo $parent; echo ' > ' .$category[0]->cat_name; }
else
{ echo $category[0]->cat_name; }
?>
</span>
