This is a news article to show:
The NewsListing snippet is written into the document like this:
[ [NewsListing?newsid=8] ]
This calls the NewsListing snippet, and feeds it with a variable called newsid, which has a value of 8. The newsid variable is then used by the snippet so it knows where to look for news. This way, you can have as many different news sections, or blogs even, using just one snippet! Oh yeah, there's not meant to be a space between the double [ and ] characters. I just put those in to stop Etomite from thinking it needed to call the snippet here ;)
