   HI as the topic i need to do that.
   So i searched around and found
   <?php query_posts('cat=-1'); ?>

   It works fine , but now the problem is with the navigation (i.e next page ,previous page ) on the index.

   The problem is that i have 5posts in the cat=1 and 10 posts in rest of the categories and im using "Blog pages show at most=5posts" so i should have 2 previous pages right . But when ever i click previous page it shows the same 5 posts(i.e the recent 5 ones ) on the next page and the next page ??

   It may be difficult to understand my problem but im hoping for the best.
   Regards.

   Hi

   This will solve your problem

   <?php $paged = (get_query_var('paged')) ? get_query_var('paged') : 1;
         query_posts("cat=-1&paged=$paged"); ?>

   <?php
   // Get posts excluding category id 1
   query_posts('cat=-1');
   // the Loop
   while (have_posts()) : the_post();
     // the content of the post
     the_content;
   endwhile;
   ?>
   
   <?php if ( have_posts() ) : while ( have_posts() ) : the_post(); ?>
   
   <div class="postinfo">
   
   <?php  include(TEMPLATEPATH.'/imagevalues.php'); ?>	
   
   <a href="<?php echo $url; ?>" class="thumpre" rel="<?php echo $image1; ?>" title=""><img src="<?php echo $image; ?>" alt="<?php the_title(); ?>" /></a>
   
   				<?php the_content ?>
   <div class="contentCenter">

   <div class="right"> <h1><small><a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>#comments"> (<?php comments_number('0','1','%'); ?>)</a></small></h1>    </div>	 </div>
   			</div>	
   
   	<?php endwhile; ?>
   
   	<?php else : ?>
   <div class="postinfo3">
   		<h2 class="pagetitle">Not Found</h2>
   		<p>Sorry, but you are looking for something that isn't here.</p>
   </div>
   
   	<?php endif; ?>
   
   <div class="navigation">
   			<div class="alignleft"><?php next_posts_link('&laquo; Older Entries') ?></div>
   			<div class="alignright"><?php previous_posts_link('Newer Entries &raquo;') ?></div>
   		</div>
   
   </div>
   
   <?php get_footer(); ?>

   Hi

   In your code above, change this
   

   <?php
   // Get posts excluding category id 1
   query_posts('cat=-1');
   // the Loop
   while (have_posts()) : the_post();
     // the content of the post
     the_content;
   endwhile;
   ?>

   to this
   

   <?php
   // Get posts excluding category id 1
   $paged = (get_query_var('paged')) ? get_query_var('paged') : 1;
         query_posts("cat=-1&paged=$paged");
   // the Loop
   while (have_posts()) : the_post();
     // the content of the post
     the_content;
   endwhile;
   ?>
