I know I asked this before:(  But I searched and searched and I would like a script that will call up the top 5 or 10 most recent posts to my main *.asp web page.  I still  can't find it.  Can some one please post a link or just post the scipt.  I have the mod to post the 5 most recent posts to the main FORUM page but I would like to pull these most recent post on my front WEB page... 

Thanks in Advance

Lo

Simple:


Dim strRecentPosts
strSQL = "SELECT TOP 10 topic_ID,subject from tblTopic ORDER BY Last_entry_date DESC"
rsCommon.open strSQL, adoCon


Do until rscommon.eof or rsCommon.bof
strRecentPosts = strRecentPosts + ("<a href=""http://www.yoursite/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=" & RsCommon("topic_ID") & "&PN=1&TPN=1"">" & rsCommon("subject") & "</a><BR>")
rsCommon.movenext
loop


rsCommon.close

Then wherever you want the recent posts box simply put:


<%=strRecentPosts%>
