   Hello.

   I am trying to make a custom loop for what I would call a "box". The reason behind creating this box is that it is used to display a list of post from different categories. Wherever I want to have the box included I use the following code:
   

   <?php
   $boxclass = "list";
   $boxname = "Sound";
   $showposts = "5";
   $catnr = "3";
   include("module_boxlist.php");
   ?>

   The content of module_boxlisted.php is:
   

   <div class="<?php echo $boxclass; ?>">
   					<h4><?php echo $boxname; ?></h4>
   					<ul>
   						<?php query_posts('showposts=' . $showposts . '&cat=' . $catnr );
   	  						while (have_posts()) : the_post();
   						?>
   
   						<li><a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link to <?php the_title_attribute(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></li>
       					<?php endwhile; ?>
   					</ul>
   </div>

   Anyone have an idea about why the loop fails?
