   please, please help - i'm trying to get a page to display 10 posts of a category 33. and i've had absolutely no luck (despite hours of trying!). any help would be so so so appreciated. here's the coding:

   <div id="gallery">

   <?php query_posts($query_string . '&cat=33'); ?>

   <div class="content">
   <?php if(have_posts()) : ?><?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>

   <div class="date">
   <?php the_date(''); ?>
   </div>

   <div class="title">
   <?php the_title(''); ?>
   </div>

   <div class="entry">
   <?php the_content(''); ?>
   </div>

   <?php endwhile;?>
   <?php endif; ?>

   </div>

   What result are you getting, for example an error message..?
   Also would be useful to know what the $query_string is..

   Anyway, try this:

   <?php query_posts($query_string . '&cat=33&posts_per_page=10'); ?>

   <?php get_header(); ?>

   <!-- Content Wrap -->
   <div id="galleryWrap">
   <!-- Gallery -->
   <div id="gallery">

   <?php if (is_page ()){ ?>

   <? } ?>

   <div class="content">

   <?php query_posts($query_string . '&cat=33&posts_per_page=10'); ?>

   <?php if(have_posts()) : ?><?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>

   <div class="date">
   <?php the_date(''); ?>
   </div>

   <div class="title">
   <?php the_title(''); ?>
   </div>

   <div class="entry">
   <?php the_content(''); ?>
   </div>

   <?php endwhile;?>
   <?php endif; ?>

   </div>
   </div><!-- [END] gallery content -->
   <?php get_sidebar();?>

   Just in case... When you say page, do you mean that you are pasting that code directly into the page? That won't work.

   You should create a template with the code in there. Then create a new page from the admin dashboard and from the attributes select the template you created.

   Hope this helps.

   From the code you've posted it looks you're missing a closing </div> tag at the end just before the get sidebar line. (Unless you've included this somewhere in the sidebar code...)

   tried to add in a </div> tag and no luck
   so strange, right?
   i can't figure out what i'm missing. all that will display is the title of the category & the date the category was created
   (instead of the content, titles & dates of the posts in the categories)

   here's the coding again in case someone can help:

   <?php get_header(); ?>

   <!-- Content Wrap -->
   <div id="galleryWrap">
   <!-- Gallery -->
   <div id="gallery">

   <?php if (is_page ()){ ?>

   <? } ?>

   <div class="content">

   <?php query_posts($query_string . '&cat=33&posts_per_page=10'); ?>

   <?php if(have_posts()) : ?><?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>

   <div class="date">
   <?php the_date(''); ?>
   </div>

   <div class="title">
   <?php the_title(''); ?>
   </div>

   <div class="entry">
   <?php the_content(''); ?>
   </div>

   <?php endwhile;?>
   <?php endif; ?>

   </div>
   </div><!-- [END] gallery content -->

   <?php get_sidebar();?>

   </div><!-- [END] galleryWrap -->
   <?php get_footer(); ?>

   Where are you putting your code? Did you create the page template as buddha trance suggested?
