Conditional Tag tip and help please?

[inertia]

Here's a tip and a question in one...

I use this bit of code quite a lot:

<?php if (is_home()) : ?>
<h1>title</h1>
<p>content</p>

<?php endif; ?>

...which is all you need if you want to hard code some content into the home page which will not appear on any other page which uses the same template.

That works fine but it doesnt stop the content appearing on the other "older posts" pages. Does anyone know how or what codex i need to ensure that content only displays on the very top page?

For people that havent got that into hard coding on wordpress check this out: Conditional Tags wordpress Codex

Are you setting a static home page, or a home page that lists post content? Also, what version of Wordpress is running on the site using this code and experiencing this issue?

Its version 2.7 and im using it in standard blog setup.
