author posts outside the loop

    Hi I’m using the current code to retreive all the posts of the current page’s author, and skip the current post id, which is 159

    <?php query_posts("author", $theauthorid);
while (have_posts()) : the_post(); if( $post->ID == '159' ) continue; ?>

    basically I need to skip the current post – so how would I do that automatically? ie replace the 159 in the code above with whatever the current post id is?

    thanks,

    got it

    <?php

  //Gets author info and current post id
  global $wp_query;
  $postAuthor = $wp_query->post->post_author;
$tempQuery = $wp_query;
  $currentId = $post->ID;

query_posts("author=$postAuthor");

while (have_posts()) : the_post(); if( $post->ID == $currentId ) continue; ?>
