how can I rotate articles on a page

Thanks Dave I have done that already. What they want is like the one article to be up on the home page for 10 seconds then the next one replaces it going over and over with the 3 most current ones. They are not a fan of the check box because many people will be working on the site writing articles so they want it to pull from all of the news category regardless. I can work it side ways if this was adding articles to an RSS like article Manager does I made something like this before but had to use a java script to display an RSS feed.

Thanks for your help

Ahh, I see, so you just need the dhtml part that slides the content around. Do you have a javascript dhtml script to do the sliding already or is that what you're looking for?

Looking at the source of http://www.raptorsuif.com/ it looks like they're using this one: http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex17/featuredcontentslider.htm

It looks like all you need to do is put a div around the 3 records that are output.

Hope that helps!

Thanks so much Dave I will start to work on that now. So because I want just 3 articles I limit my list view to 3, are they by defult sorted by date or will I need to define a sort order by date.

Yes, you always need to define a sort order. Otherwise it will return them sorted by num or whatever order they happen to be in the database.
