   Just wondering if anyone could tell me how to make the following code display posts of only the current catergory. At the moment it displays post from all catergories.

   "
   <?php $catergory = new WP_Query(cat_id=current_catergory); while($catergory->have_posts()) : $catergory ->the_post(); ?>

   <?php if( get_post_meta($post->ID, "homethumb", true) ): ?>
   " rel="bookmark"><img style="float:left;margin:0px 10px 0px 0px;" src="<?php echo get_post_meta($post->ID, "homethumb", true); ?>" alt="<?php the_title(); ?>" />
   <?php else: ?>
   " rel="bookmark"><img style="float:left;margin:0px 10px 0px 0px;" src="<?php bloginfo('template_url'); ?>/images/thumbnail.png" alt="<?php the_title(); ?>" />
   <?php endif; ?>
   <b>" rel="bookmark"><?php the_title(); ?></b>
   <?php the_content_limit(350, "[Read more]"); ?> "

   Instead of

   $catergory = new WP_Query(cat_id=current_catergory);

   you want

   $catergory = new WP_Query("cat=$current_category");

   where $current_category holds the integer id of the desired category.

   By the way, I'd fix the misspelling of $catergory just because it's likely to confuse things later.
