Related Articles Can't Post

Hi,

my client wants to be able to chose which articles will appear on the homepage.
for example, when he ads a new article and he wants to check box it if it will appear on the home page as well.

I tried implementing the Related Articles add-on as described by a different user (http://www.interactivetools.com/iforum/Products_C2/Article_Manager_Add-ons_F15/Rating_&_Comment_Script_P45623/gforum.cgi?post=28344;search_string=related%20article;t=search_engine#28344)
but it doesn't work properly. more articles than marked appear on the list.

see sample: http://www.buildingmovement.org/artman/publish/test_hp.shtml
I don't know why these articles and not others decided to appear on the homepage.

the SSI I used was this:
<!--#include virtual="/artman/exec/search.cgi?template=search/projectsmenu.html&keyword=$art_field3$&start=1" -->

any advice about this feature? or new ideas how I can make specific articles appear on the homepage?

many thanks,
Roni

I've solved the problem creating a category called "Home Page" and setting the relative index page as my home page (with just one article displayed). Of course i made it invisible... so home page articles are not repeated on headlines showed on home page.

p.s. sorry for my english :-(

Reading other posts I got it to work.
my SSI was wrong, the correct one is:

<!--#include virtual="/artman/exec/search.cgi?template=search/projectsmenu.html&perpage=15&fields=art_field3&keyword=Homepage&start=1" -->
