Yeah, more information will probably be helpful.  Basically, I am building a 
very simple blog.  When a person clicks on teh "fashion" tab on the home page, 
they are taken to a page that shows the 5 most recent blog posts for that 
category.  If they want, the users can also view each post separately, kind of 
like a permalink.

Currently, my query is as follows (be gentle with me :)  ):

<cfquery name="Comments" datasource="#request.dsn#">
        SELECT *
        FROM PostComments
        JOIN Users
        ON PostComments.UserID=Users.UserID
        <cfif isDefined("URL.postID")>
        JOIN Posts
        ON PostComments.PostID=Posts.PostID
        WHERE Posts.PostID = '#URL.postID#' AND CategoryID = '#CategoryID#'
        <cfelse>
        JOIN Posts
        ON PostComments.PostID=Posts.PostID
        </cfif>
</cfquery>              

Right now, this query works to grab a variety of information, such as the user 
who posted the blog entry, the users who have commented, etc.  Also, this works 
fine when the individual blog entry is browsed; however, when the top 5 blog 
entries are displayed, the information is simply looped from one post to 
another, all of them showing the exact same "Comments" information.  So 
basically, I am trying to figure out how to get the results of "Comments" to 
parse out correctly between the 5 blog posts that are being displayed on the 
initial "fashion" page, displaying not only the correct number of comments for 
each blog post, but also the correct comments with the correct blog post.  

Also, I don't know if this has to do with anything, but I need the results of 
this query to display within the results of my main "post" output query.  


Thanks for everyone's responses so far.  I really appreciate them!

Joel
