• I have a concept in mind for a site where there will be opposing sides to each post. I thought it would be cool if I could have the navigation appear between the two columns.

    Any ideas? Like a plugin that would insert the nav in a post? Or maybe it’s possible with template tags?

    I guess What I’m really hoping for is a way to add the sidebar in middle of a post.

    I’m making progress on this. Using Exec-PHP plugin and then in the post `<table border=”0″ width=”100%”>
    <tr>
    <td>leftside content</td>
    <td><?php get_sidebar(); ?></td>
    <td>rightside content</td>
    </tr>
    </table>`

    I just need to mess with the theme now and it should work!

    I’m now having trouble with the css to get the post centered instead of floating left. It needs to be centered because the background image will help divide the page and it is positioned center. Here’s what the css looks like right now. Yeah I know I’ve probably got text-align:center; in all kinds of places it doesn’t need to be
