I want to be able to display 3 posts from the same category on my index.php page, but due to the way my site's HTML/CSS is coded I'm having some difficulty understanding the correct way to go about doing this using a loop (as the code for the divs being used are not the same for all three sections, it's using different CSS styles to achieve a layered effect/look ).
Here is the HTML code.
<div id="first-story" class="story">
<div class="content">
<h3 class="story-heading">Headline 1</h3>
<ul>
<li>Nullam sit amet scelerisque est. </li>
<li>Aliquam erat volutpat. Duis sed nisi nunc, faucibus rutrum mauris. </li>
<li>Nullam iaculis lorem ut tortor ullamco per aliquet. Integer id leo non mauris pulvinar gravida vitae a enim. </li>
<li>Nullam sit amet scelerisque est.</li>
</ul>
<a class="learnmore" href="#"><img src="img/button-learnmore.png"></a></div>
<div class="edge"></div>
</div>
<div id="second-story" class="story">
<div class="content">
<h3 class="story-heading">Headline 2</h3>
<p>Paragraph text</p>
<a class="learnmore" href="#"><img src="img/button-learnmore.png"></a></div>
</div>
</div>
<div id="third-story" class="story">
<div class="edge"></div>
<div class="content">Headline 3</div>
<ul>
<li>List item</li>
</ul>
<a class="learnmore" href="#"><img src="img/button-learnmore.png"></a></div>
</div>
Any help would be very much appreciated.
