Accessing TXP tags from subdirectory install

I have installed TXP under ../blog/textpattern as I wish to have a specific blog component of my website. However, on the initial landing page (www.boatzilla.com) i also wish to pull in recent article titles and excerpts. I am having trouble figuring out how to properly access the TXP tags with this installation. Any help is greatly appreciated.

No way to make this happen.

Without PHP, that is.

Each entry in the database is stored already converted into HTML. You can use php to select this field from the database, and display it on your main page. You can use the various textpattern functions to do this. Checkout the last chunk of code on this post from this post to see how. I use the safe_query() function for example.

Thanks all. Going to give the PHP route a try.
