# Numeric post classes

 * I want to display four posts, but I need each to have a numeric class. That’s
   to say, I want a 1, 2, 3, or 4 where “n” is below.
 *     ```
       <?php query_posts('showposts=4&cat=6');?>
   
       <?php while ( have_posts() ) : the_post() ?>
   
       <li><a href="#" class="n"><img src="<?php echo get_post_meta($post->ID, "wppt_preset2", true); ?>"></a></li>
   
       <?php endwhile; ?>
       ```
   
 * Ideas?

 * do you mean:
 *     ```
       <?php query_posts('showposts=4&cat=6');?>
       <?php $counter = 1; ?>
       <?php while ( have_posts() ) : the_post() ?>
   
       <li><a href="#" class="<?php echo $counter; $counter++; ?>"><img src="<?php echo get_post_meta($post->ID, "wppt_preset2", true); ?>"></a></li>
   
       <?php endwhile; ?>
       ```
