Can anyone provide me the sql query to display all the urls for the documents stored in the categories.

I'm not sure I entirely follow what you are looking for when you say "the documents stored in the categories"
If you are looking for a way to display URLs for documents in a specific category, you could query the WWSBR_ALL_ITEMS view for all items that are of the desired type, are from the appropriate page group(s), and are in that category. If you want to query by the category name, you may need to retrieve that from the WWSBR_ALL_CATEGORIES view since the all_items view only stores the category_id.
As for programmatically constructing the uRL, there are a couple of ways of forming direct access URLs. If you look in portal's on-line help, they have a topic specifically on that.
I recently used the 2nd of the two approaches they list when I wrote a package that retrieve the NAME and DISPLAY_NAME values from the WWSBR_ALL_ITEMS view and constructed the URL for the item as:
htp.p('<a href="[portal base address:port]/pls/portal/url/ITEM/'||name||'">'||DISPLAY_NAME||'</a>');
where [portal base address:port] is the appropriate value for your system.
Hope that helps,
