 * I’d be very pleased if one of you guys could help me.
 * I’ve managed to create pages and a page template that works correctly. I’ve also
   created categories and there are a couple of posts in each of them. Now I’d like
   to include all the posts from a certain category to the certain page. Is it okay
   to do that with `query_posts('category_name=X');` ?
 * This is my problem:
 * I’d like to have each post shown in a box with a border and a background-image.
   I know how to create the box with css but what I DON’T know is how to set every
   single post appear in that box. I’ve been trying to create single post templates
   and also used a plugin with which I can define certain templates to show with
   certain posts, but they either ain’t working properly or I’m using them in a 
   somehow wrong way. To sum up, all the posts in a certain category should be shown
   at the same time on a given page, each post inside a box defined in css. How 
   to do that? Answers very much appreciated. 🙂 thanks!
