    There are other sorting options than date - including some add-ons that help the sorting issue.  There are also add-ons for handling navigation in different ways.

    EE doesn’t really talk about what features they are adding in the future, but since the current functionality works well (and *is* straightforward IMHO) I’d be surprised to see anything change.

    Thanks Boyink,

    I must confess I’ve been looking for a tutorial like yours on EE’s site for a few hours now, you’d think this kind of information would be fronted a bit much in the templating section.

    All I wanted was to know the syntax to enclose a list of entries between <ul><li></li></ul> tags automatically, and I had to get it on your site instead of EE’s.

    So for the next one looking to display entries in an unordered list:

    <ul>
    {exp:weblog:entries weblog="{weblog name here}" orderby="date" sort="desc" limit="10" disable="member_data|trackbacks" dynamic="off"}
    <li><a href="http://{title_permalink={template_group_here}/index}">{title}</a></li>
    {/exp:weblog:entries} 
    </ul>

    I think you should check out the navigator module, that more or less works like you explain it.
