Little code changement

Hallo, this is a part of the code in the sidebar in a WP site. I have tried to change the offset value from 0 to 1, but it doesn't work, the sidebar doesn't appear. Who can fix that for me? This project is urgent <ul class="widget firma"> <li> <div class="h2"><span>Wow</span></div> <?php $recent = new WP_Query("cat=6825&showposts=1&offset=0"); while($recent->have_posts()) : $recent->the_post();?> <div class="image"> <a href="<?php bloginfo('url'); ?>/?page_id=93736&pxid=<?php the_ID(); ?>"> <img src="<?php echo $image = get_post_meta($post->ID, 'articleimg', true); ?>" alt="<?php the_title(); ?>"/> </a> </div> <div class="caption"> <p class="title"><a href="<?php bloginfo('url'); ?>/?page_id=93736&pxid=<?php the_ID(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></p> <p class="name"><?php echo $autore = get_post_meta($post->ID, 'autore', true); ?></p> </div> <?php endwhile; ?> </li> </ul>
