   I would like to list posts having a certain tag on pages, something similar to author posts.

   The ideal would be to have x most recent posts with tag y and a link to the tag page listing all posts with the specified tag.

   Is there any ready made code/plug-in for this or could anyone give me a hint how to do this?

   Thanks!

   If you use the WordPress Default 1.6 theme, you will see posts on displayed with the tags. When you click on a tag, it takes you to the tag archive automatically--that's the WordPress native ability to handle archives.

   Not sure if that answers your question so will also say that you can use the template tag, query_posts() (see the Tag Parameters and Combining Parameters sections), to present a page of posts that match your criteria.

   Ok, thanks for the reply but it still didn't solve my problem.

   To detail a bit more what I was hoping to achieve:

   I would like to have static pages (the ones that I write, in my site e.g 'Dogs') display in the body of the page a short list of posts tagged with the page-slug (dogs). if there is no tag that corresponds with the page_slug it should just not display anything. I think it would be ok to just display the titles clickable.

   Now, since I am only semiliterate in php I don't want to spend a lot of time reinventing the wheel. I was hoping someone had already done this or could maybe point me to a plug-in that could do something like this.

   Is this what you mean? This lists ALL posts with the tag=elaine, I am trying to figure out how to list, say 5 at a time and the n next>>

   elseif(is_page('20')){
   		query_posts('tag=elaine'); ?>
   		 <?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
   		 <h2><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark" title="<?php _e('Permanent l&auml;nk till'); ?> <?php the_title(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></h2>
            <?php the_excerpt(); ?>
   		 <span class="post-cat">Skrivet:</span> <span class="post-calendar"><?php the_time('d F, Y') ?>.
            <?php the_tags(); ?>
   
   		 </span><br/><br/>
   		 <?php endwhile;?>
            <?php
   }
