   Hello.

   I have a problem with listing four boxes with 5 latest links from each category in the index page of my theme. The theme is live at http://videofoto.hiof.no . The problem is that the code I use lists 5 links in total over the four boxes instead of 5 links on each box.

   I use the following code...
   theme/index.php
   

   <?php 
   
   $boxclass = "list";
   $boxname = "<a class='categoryheading video' href='video/'><!--:en-->Video<!--:--><!--:no-->Video<!--:--> &raquo;</a>";
   $showposts = "5";
   $catnr = "8";
   
   include("module_boxlist.php"); 
   
   $boxclass = "list";
   $boxname = "<a class='categoryheading photo' href='photo/'><!--:en-->Photo<!--:--><!--:no-->Foto<!--:--> &raquo;</a>";
   $showposts = "5";
   $catnr = "5";
   
   include("module_boxlist.php"); 
   
   $boxclass = "list";
   $boxname = "<a class='categoryheading sound' href='sound/'><!--:en-->Sound<!--:--><!--:no-->Lyd<!--:--> &raquo;</a>";
   $showposts = "5";
   $catnr = "7";
   
   include("module_boxlist.php"); 
   
   $boxclass = "list";
   $boxname = "<a class='categoryheading article' href='artikkel/'><!--:en-->Articles<!--:--><!--:no-->Artikkel<!--:--> &raquo;</a>";
   $showposts = "5";
   $catnr = "3";
   
   include("module_boxlist.php"); 
   
   ?>

   theme/module_boxlist.php
   

   <?php global $more;
   $more = 0;
   ?>
   <div class="<?php echo $boxclass; ?>">
   					<h4><?php _e($boxname); ?></h4>
   					<ul>
   						<?php query_posts('showposts=' . $showposts);
   	  						while (have_posts()) : the_post();
   	  						if (in_category($catnr)):
   						?>
   
   						<li class="frontpagelist"><a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link to <?php the_title_attribute(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></li>
   
       					<?php endif; ?>
       					<?php endwhile; ?>
   					</ul>
   </div>

   Thanks in advance to good ideas on how to fix the problem.
