get all tags from category

Question

i'm displaying all posts by category in my template and i was wondering: is it possible to get a list of all tags used by that category?

i only found out how to make a tag-dropdown but it's from all articles, i couldn't find out yet how to filter it by category - any ideas?

thx in advance

That code example is not compatible with wordpress blogs that have a different table prefix than wp_ :/ – hakre Mar 21 '11 at 13:43

To fix that, you can manually replace all instances of wp_ in the sql with $wpdb->prefix. – imHavoc Mar 21 '11 at 19:54

Late answer

There's get_terms() here for that. No need for any custom queries.
