Calling Posts from a Specific Category

    Hi,

    I am setting up a site for a freind. I run a few sites but am still very much a newbie to PHP. (better at seo)

    I am trying to make the viewport theme call only posts from a specific category for the slider.

    I have done some reading but whatever I try seems to generate errors. 

    <?php if (have_posts()) : ?>

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

				<div class="panel" id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>" title="<?php the_title() ?>">

    That’s the code that needs modification ( I hope) I have tried adding

    <?php query_posts(‘cat_ID=9’); ?> in front of the have posts string without success.

    Can anyone tell me where I am going wrong?

    Nevermind… I fixed it ??

    Should have been:

    <?php if (have_posts()) : ?>
<?php query_posts('cat=9'); ?>
<?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>

<div class="panel" id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>" title="<?php the_title() ?>">
