PHP file to pull data from a DB and display on a web page

Hello, If you are familiar with PHP/MySQL, this should be an easy project for you. Additionally, some knowledge of the WordPress blog software might be helpful, but is not required. I have a "News" section on my web page and I want to populate with data from my WordPress (version 2.0) blog. Attached is a zip file that contains the [url removed, login to view] file along with the CSS file so you can see how the page should look with the related font sizes/colors. As you can see, the "Latest News" section contains room for three news items. It displays the date, a bold portion of text, some other text, and a "Read more" link. I would like to have some PHP code added to this file that would connect to the MySQL database and read the information in the appropriate WordPress table(s) in order to populate this information. Here is more detail about how it should work: - The date displayed should be the date the blog post was published - The bold text should be the "Title" of the blog post - The normal (unbold) text should be the text from the "Optional Excerpt" field - The "Read more" link should take the user directly to the blog post That's it. I would like to have the install be as easy as possible. Essentially, I want to be able to just modify the database connection details and then place the file(s) on the server. Please let me know of you have any questions. Thanks you.
