   Hi all,

   I have now this query:

   <?php query_posts('showposts=5&random=true');?>
   <?php if ( have_posts() ) : while ( have_posts() ) : the_post(); ?>
   	<div>
   		<h1><?php the_title(); ?></h1>
   		<p><?php postimage('thumbnail'); ?></p>
   	</div>

   It show the 5 recent post's.

   My question:

   How to show post 5 t/m 10 (by random?)
   How to exclude a category id?

   Someone?

   How to show post 5 t/m 10 (by random?)

   I'm sorry, but I'm not sure what the abbreviation t/m means.

   How to exclude a category id?

   query_posts(array('category__not_in' => array(17)));
   excludes category 17

   i mean how to show post 5 until post 10

   because i have on the frontpage post 1 until 5.

   And how to add your query into my post query?
   (this one:)

   <?php query_posts('showposts=5&random=true');?>
   how to add your array into this?

   5-10: that's 6 posts. And to start with the 5th you need to offset by 4:

   query_posts(array(
      'showposts' => 6,
      'offset' => 4,
      'random' => true,
      'category__not_in' => array(17),
   ));

   Thank you filosofo! You rock!

   only, one small problem, it's not random anymore. I think it's because the value is set by 4.
   But it must be random to (for example post 4 - 9999)

   Hey filosofo, i got it!

   I have now created this code:

   <div id="mpu_test1">
   <?query_posts(array(
      'showposts' => 4,
      'offset' => 9,
      'random' => true,
      'category__not_in' => array(95,145,226),
   ));?>
   <?php if ( have_posts() ) : while ( have_posts() ) : the_post(); ?>
   	<div>
   <table width="100%" border="0">
     <tr>
       <td><img src="<?php echo bloginfo('template_url'); ?>/thumb.php?src=<?php echo get_post_meta($post->ID, "image", $single = true); ?>&amp;h=57&amp;w=100&amp;zc=1&amp;q=95" alt="<?php the_title(); ?>" class="th" />			</td>
       <td><?php the_title(); ?></td>
     </tr>
   </table>
   	</div>
   <?php endwhile; else: ?><p>Oops, no posts!</p><?php endif; ?>

   but that gives this output:
   (see screenshot)

   How to make the results right under each other?
   Instant of this?:

   - item
   - item
   - item
   - item
