Need help using get_posts

$args = array(
      'post__in' => array(22),
);

then

$myposts = get_posts($args);

where 22 is the post ID

Hmmm. that seems to have had no effect.

really? whats your total code now?

<div class="sponsor">
<?php

 			$args = array(
      'post__in' => array(688),
);
                        global $post;
			$myposts = get_posts('category=9&numberposts=1');
 			foreach($myposts as $post) :
   			setup_postdata($post);
 			?>

				<div class="sponsortext">

					<?php  the_excerpt(); ?>
				</div>
				<div class="break"></div>

			<?php endforeach; ?>
</div>

you don’t actually call the args….

$myposts = get_posts('category=9&numberposts=1');

should now be

$myposts = get_posts($args);

duh. I will change it and let you know what happens. thanks!

That is the ticket! Thanks!

nice! glad it worked
