   Please I need some help!
   I want to have a list of posts, at the bottom, and have one post show on top.
   It would look something like this:

   ----------------------------------
   THIS IS THE FIRST TITLE
   by admin on September 18,2011

   This is the content of the first post
   Blah Blah
   Blah Blah Blah

   ----------------------------------
   THIS IS THE FIRST TITLE
   ----------------------------------
   THIS IS THE SECOND TITLE
   ----------------------------------
   THIS IS THE THIRD TITLE
   ----------------------------------
   THIS IS THE FOURTH TITLE
   ----------------------------------
   THIS IS THE FIFTH TITLE
   ----------------------------------
   prev|next

   and if you click on one of the other titles, let's say the fourth post from the list,
   then only the fourth post would show on top and the title of the fourth post gets highlighted (or bold, or change color or what not)
   And at the bottom to have a previous and next link if there were more posts.

   Any help would be greatly appreciated.
   THanks!!!

   Thanks esmi.
   That's a start, but
   how do keep the same format even if I were to click on "This is the third title"
   so the top shows only the title and content of the third title,
   and it still shows the list of post titles at the bottom?
   So the link of the post titles would only change the content of the post on top....?

   I think you could edit single.php and add another loop under the post content, one that would give you post titles only (while excluding the content of the current post).

   Thanks. I got it working.
   but my navigation for previous and next page at the bottom doesn't seem to work...
   

   <div id="content_news">
   		<?php if(have_posts()) : ?><?php while(have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
   
   			<div class="post" id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>">
   
   				<h2 class="post_title"><?php the_title(); ?>.</h2>
               	<div class="post_content">
                  		 <h3 class="post_meta"><?php the_date(); ?> by <?php the_author(); ?></h3>
   					<?php the_content(); ?>
        	       </div>
        	    </div>       
   
   		<?php endwhile;
   		endif;?>
   
   		<div id="news_list">
   			<?php $recent = new WP_Query("showposts=5"); while($recent->have_posts()) : $recent->the_post();?>
   			<h2 class="post_title">
   				<a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a>
   			</h2>
   			<?php endwhile; ?>
               	<div class="navigation"><p><?php posts_nav_link(); ?></p></div>
   		</div>
   	</div>
