thank you! but i looked and couldnt see any difference....or where i made my mistake...i mean, obviously i have edited out alot of the unneccesary things like comments and trackbacks and such. all i want is the time, date, title and actual blog. do you have any idea what the problem may be?

start over again with the default one, nd start delting ONE BY ONE of the things you don't need.
Check after every deletion.
That's the way we learn...
