You need to assign the return value from query_posts to a variable …

… then loop through that returned variable to echo the data out (if that’s what you want to do).

Check out the codex on query_posts

that i did in the code which it says =10. what else am i suppose to do?

It’s difficult to understand what’s going on in your code as you’ve only posted a portion of it.

What else are you supposed to do?

You really need to get yourself familiar with php and, in this case, the query_posts function.

Honestly, read and understand the codex on the subject.
