the_content(); doesn't print anything in my wordpress custom template page

I have to show 2 articles in a custom template page in my wordpress blog, but this code show nothing.

  $myposts = get_posts("numberposts=2&category=3"); 
foreach($myposts as $post) : the开发者_如何学编程_content(); endforeach;

but if I try to print_r($myposts); I can say that there is an array..how can i solve this problem? thanks a lot

Write this line:

the_post();

before you use:

the_content();

Ya need to use the loop!

query_posts("numberposts=2&category=3");
while ( have_posts() ): the_post();
    the_content();
endwhile;

can you try with this:-

    <ul>
     <?php
     global $post;
     $myposts = get_posts('numberposts=5&offset=1&category=1');
     foreach($myposts as $post) :
       setup_postdata($post);
     ?>
        <li><a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></li>
<?php the_content() ?>
     <?php endforeach; ?>
     </ul>
