   hello.
   i am pretty close to figuring this out, but i've come up against a brick wall.

   i am trying to retrieve a number of posts, by post_ids only.
   e.g. i want to display posts 1,5,24,32 and 48

   i have already collected the post_ids into a variable
   e.g. $posts = '1,5,24,32,48';

   and i am trying to print them out using this:
   query_posts(array("post__in" => array($posts)));

   but it only ever prints out the first post.

   is there a different line that you have to use to get it to print out all the posts listed in the variable?

   thanks for your help!

   >>$posts = '1,5,24,32,48';<<

   You can't set up a variable like this. 1 varibale = 1 thing. If you want 1 variable to be a list of things, you have to set it up as an array.

   Since I dont' know your code, then the best suggestion i can offer is:

   $post1 = "1";
   $post2 = "5";
   etc.
