Only one item on front page

Hi,

I’m designing a new theme for my website/weblog. I’m trying to figure out how I can put only one item on the front page.

This is how it should work:
* show excerpt from last article
* show 5 latest titles
* show 5 latest comments

When clicking the article title, it should show only that article. I already know that works with single.php…

Now it shows the last article ten times on the front page. I guess it has something to do with the placement of the loop.

This is the index.php

<?php get_header(); ?>

<?php get_sidebar(); ?>

<div id="content">

<?php if (have_posts()) : ?>
<?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>

<?php $posts = get_posts('numberposts=1&offset=0'); foreach($posts as $post) :?>

<div id="item">
<h2 class="subject">" rel="bookmark" title="Permanente link naar <?php the_title(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></h2>
<div class="date"><?php the_time('F jS, Y') ?></div>

<div class="entry">
<?php the_content("Lees verder »"); ?>
</div>
</div>
<?php endforeach; ?>

<div id="other">

<div id="latestposts">
<h3>Laaste artikels</h3>

<?php $posts = get_posts('numberposts=5&offset=1'); foreach($posts as $post) : ?>
• "><?php the_title(); ?>

<?php endforeach; ?>

</div>

<div id="latestcomments">
<h3>Laatste reacties</h3>

<?php get_recent_comments(); ?>

</div>
<div class="clear"></div>
</div> <!-- Close other -->

<?php endwhile; ?>
<?php endif; ?>

</div> <!-- Close content -->

Can someone help me out here?
Thanks in advance.
