Help calling new threads to a custom page help

1 Attachment(s)

On my page, I'm trying to list the top 5 threads in a table.

I'm trying to call the latest thread to position 1 in the table, the second newest thread to position 2 ect, ect, with thread replies not having an effect on how high up or down in the table a thread is placed.

I've created a template and a php file following Lynnes article so I just need to be able to call new threads to display in the table I've created on my page.

Here's an image describing what I'm attempting.

I'm ok with everything except for calling the threads.

I think you just basically need something along these lines (replace * with the specific fields you want):

PHP Code:


		
			
$my_query="SELECT * FROM ".$TABLE_PREFIX."thread as thread
WHERE thread.visible = 1 AND thread.forumid=x
ORDER BY thread.dateline desc limit 5"; 
$my_result=$db->query($my_query); 

while ($my_variable=$db->fetch_array($my_result)) {
do stuff, including rending the template
}

(There are mods around that have these queries and the while loop and all, you just need to go look.)
