Why on Blooger do u have to post backwards like what u want at the end u have to post first?

[Dan L]

I'm assuming you mean Blogger, and something like:
[post1]
[post2]
[post3]


When it queries the database, the code tells it whether to display the data ASC (ascending) or DESC (descending), and I'm assuming that it's set to DESC. I'd email them and ask how to change it to ASC.

Hope that helps.

like if i type welcome to my site then go and create a new pos the new one on top why?

[cher]

... because it makes more sense to have new posts appear at the top and old posts appear at the bottom. When your webpage loads the first thing people see is the new posts at the top.

If your webpage loaded backwards then it would make more sense to have new posts at the bottom Sites load from the top-down so new stuff is at the top.

lewgates, there's no shame in asking or not knowing as long as he's willing to learn. I see no reason to laugh at him.
