After futher review, it seems your suggestion doesn't help. The tr's seem to be generated by the STS Boxes.php file. The categories.php file doesn't appear to create any table html, but the STS Boxes.php file does.
I removed the word text from line 328 and 341 in the STS Boxes.php file and that fixed my problem. If anyone knows of a reason why I shouldn't do it that way or a better cleaner way, then let me know.
