    Default Putting Oldest Posts on Top of the Page

    Hello,
    I am trying to figure out how to make my oldest postings go to the top of the
    page. I currently have the newest postings on top (as it was created by my
    webdeveloper). I don't have coldfusion, but I have dreamweaver. Is it possible
    for me to fix this by myself?
    Please check my website at [url]www.clienty.com[/url] to see what I mean. Any help is
    really appreciated!! Thank you.

    I would suggest an order by clause in your query.

    Wait a minute, you don't have Cold Fusion? Uh-oh. Do you have access to:

    The .cfm file that produces your page?
    The database?
    A testing environment?

    If you answered no to these questions, you probably can't fix this yourself.

    I went to the site and it appears you fixed it unless I was looking at the
    wrong page.

    I don't know that I would try to fix this yourself but if you knew the page
    that showed the posts you would go into code view in dreamweaver and, guessing
    because I don't see any code, look for this block of text

    <cfquery name="something" datasource="dbname">
    select fieldName1,fieldName2,etc
    from tableName
    </cfquery>

    After the from line add this

    order by dateColumnName desc
