Hi,
 It is done with custom php code and i am using phptemplate for themes. This code is not optimized code, i hacked around a bit to get the functionality. There may be better methods to do this. So if someone in this list can refine this, it will be great. Put the code in the page.tp.php file
thanks,
Paul

The code is as follows:

if ($is_front) {
  $vocabularies = taxonomy_dhtml_get_vocabularies();
  $i=0; $j = 0; $k = 0;                                                                                                                                    
   foreach ($vocabularies as $vocabulary) {
    $out .= $vocabulary->name;           
    $result = db_query_range("SELECT tid, name FROM {term_data} WHERE vid = '". $vocabulary->vid. "'", 0, 9);
    while ($term = db_fetch_object($result)) {                                                                                              
      $tids[] = $term->tid;  
      $names[] = $term->name;
      $outlink .= "<b>" . $term->name  . "</b><br/>";
      $outlink .=  myshow_nodes($term->tid);
      $j++;
      if ($j > 0) {
      print $outlink;
      print "\n";
      unset($outlink, $output, $tids, $names, $out);
      $j=0;
      }
    }
  }    
}
     
function myshow_nodes($tid) {
  static $context;
  if (!isset($context)) {
    $context = taxonomy_context_get_context();
  }
  $output = "";
  $i = 0;
  $sql = "select distinct(n.nid), n.title, n.teaser " .
    "from {node} n " .
    "left join {term_node} r on n.nid = r.nid " .
    "left join {users} u on n.uid = u.uid " .
    node_access_join_sql() .
    " where r.tid = %d " .
    "and n.status = '1' ".
    "and " .  node_access_where_sql() .
    (variable_get("taxonomy_context_use_promote", 1) ? " and n.promote = '1' " : "") .
    " order by sticky desc, n.created desc";
  $result = db_query($sql, $tid);
  while ($node = db_fetch_object($result)) {
    $params = array("title" => strip_tags($node->title));
    if ($node->nid == $context->nid) {
      $params["class"] = "active";
    }

    $link = l($node->title, "node/". $node->nid, $params);
    $output .= " - " . $link . "<br/>";
    $i++;
    if ($i > 2)
    break;
  }    
  return $output;
}

I'm actually interested in a similar feature:

I'd like to flag manually some of the nodes so that their titles (just them) appear in a custom box on the homepage (not the sidebar).

I don't think this is a standard feature, so you may need to code some PHP unless someone else has done this and can offer some suggestions.

There is a 'categories' block, which lists the various categories and the number of articles in each category - maybe this could be modified to suit your needs.

(sorry, I am a bit to busy at the moment to give this further thought - maybe someone else will help?)
