if is_frontpage to display some posts from category don't work

Hello everyone,

i have this code on my index.php:

<div id="recept">
  <h2 class="recepty">Recepies</h2>
  <?php query_posts('category_name=recepty&showposts=1'); ?>
  <?php if(have_posts()) : while(have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
  <h2><a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a> </h2>
  <a href="#"><img class="recepty-87x85" alt="image" src="<?php bloginfo('template_directory'); ?>/images/pancakes.png" /></a>
  <?php the_content ('more info'); ?>
  <?php endwhile; ?>

  <?php else : ?>
  <p>There are no recepies</p>
  <?php endif; ?>
</div>

As it is it works perfect.

But i want that whole DIV to show only on front page. I know the sintaxe and i’m using it on any different blocks of code, but if i do this:

<?php if (is_front_page()); ?>
<div id="recept">
            <h2 class="recepty">Recepies</h2>
            <?php query_posts('category_name=recepty&showposts=1'); ?>
            <?php if(have_posts()) : while(have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
            <h2><a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></h2>
            <a href="#"><img class="recepty-87x85" alt="Pala?inky" src="<?php bloginfo('template_directory'); ?>/images/pancakes.png" /></a>
            <?php the_content ('more info'); ?>

            <?php endwhile; ?>
            <?php else : ?>
            	<p>There are no recepies</p>
            <?php endif; ?>
        </div>
<?php endif; ?>

It doesn’t work – on fronpage, there is nothing even on different pages. I think it have something to do with if statements, but i’m not goog at PHP. I’ve tried this also:

<?php if(is_front_page()) : ?>
        <div id="recept">
            <h2 class="recepty">Recepies</h2>
            <?php query_posts('category_name=recepty&showposts=1'); ?>
            <?php while(have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
            <h2><a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></h2>
            <a href="#"><img class="recepty-87x85" alt="Pala?inky" src="<?php bloginfo('template_directory'); ?>/images/pancakes.png" /></a>
            <?php the_content ('more info'); ?>

            <?php endwhile; ?>
            <?php else : ?>
            	<p>There are no recepies</p>
        </div>
        <?php endif; ?>

But it only make it worst – it just display “There are no recepies” and crash fallowing DIVs.

Also tried this also:

<div id="recept">
            <h2 class="recepty">Recepies</h2>
            <?php query_posts('category_name=recepty&showposts=1'); ?>
            <?php if(have_posts() && is_front_page() ) : while(have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
            <h2><a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></h2>
            <a href="#"><img class="recepty-87x85" alt="Pala?inky" src="<?php bloginfo('template_directory'); ?>/images/pancakes.png" /></a>
            <?php the_content ('more information'); ?>

            <?php endwhile; ?>
            <?php else : ?>
            	<p>There are no recepies</p>
            <?php endif; ?>
        </div>

Doesn’t work – still just writing “There are no recepies” even on front page (and yes, i have 1 post in recepty category, it works fine without ‘is_front_page’ statement).

If anybody can help, pleas do it ??
