 * Hello everybody, i wanna static frontpage wich shows only 1 or 2 posts. Can you
   please give me an example what do i have do in home.php?
    I found this one but
   it shows only links.
 * <div id=”content” class=”narrowcolumn”><h1 style=”color:#000;”>Welcome to my 
   site</h1>
    Hello and welcome to my site. You can go to my web page about how 
   to improve your shoots with your digital camera; or you can go to my blog <h2
   >Lastest posts in my blog:</h2>
 * <?php
    # Here starts Mini Loop trick: You can use this code, but _at your own
   risk_ # If you want to improve this code, you’re welcome 😉
 * $how_many=2; //How many posts do you want to show ?>
    <ul class=”whats-new”> 
   <? $news=$wpdb->get_results(“SELECT ID,post_title FROM $wpdb->posts WHERE post_status
   = \”publish\” ORDER BY ID DESC LIMIT “.$how_many); foreach($news as $np){ printf(”
    - 
    - “, $np->ID,$np->post_title);
       }?>
    - </div>
    - Thank you very much.
