okay this shows 10 posts from all categories but category 4, however, now pagination does not work

<?php query_posts('cat=-4&posts_per_page=10'); ?>
		<?php if (have_posts()) : ?>
		<?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
		<?php /** change '4' to the category number of your Article/blog section */ ?>

		<?php /** this gets the url from the custom field called 'url' */ ?>
		<?php $url = get_post_meta($post->ID, 'url', true); ?>
			<li>
				<a href="<?php echo $url; ?>" rel="bookmark" target="_blank" title="<?php the_title(); ?>">
				<?php echo get_post_image (get_the_id(), '', '', '' .get_bloginfo('template_url') .'/scripts/timthumb.php?zc=1&w=150&h=150&src='); ?></a>
				<h3><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" title="Permanent Link to <?php the_title(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></h3>
			</li>	

		<?php endwhile; ?>
		<?php else : ?>

lol anyone else that can help? so far only azaozz, whom i appreciate for replying, has helped

if i add endforeach; before each endif, i get this error

Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_ENDFOREACH in C:\xampplite\htdocs\wordpress\wp-content\themes\mag\index.php on line 35

with line 35 and each other line with causing this error being
<?php endforeach;endif; ?>

then i tried using the curly brackets

<?php foreach( $posts as $num => $post ) {
	setup_postdata($post);
    if ( $num == 0 ) {// this is the first post ?>

taking out the colon “:”
i got an error with line 34
endforeach;
that i had previously so i deleted that
and this just messed everything up…

thx azaozz
it worked until i started adding more stuff and posts

now my categories are not in order in the <h2> part such as here
<h2><?php the_category(', '); ?> &raquo;</h2>

its suppost to show categories 1,4,3 in that order
but it shows 3,1,4
the posts show up fine in its correct categories
just this h2 part is out of order

my latest code

all of my posts are in a single category, none are in both 3 and 4 or anything like that

here it is on pastbin
