One thing I noticed is looking at the page source code while viewing the WP Page, each line of the iframe definition is appended with a
** this should say a line break … did that get interpreted?**

<BR />

Still knocking this around … stripping out code and plugging it into plain html, etc.

One thing I noticed is looking at the page source code while viewing the WP Page, each line of the iframe definition is appended with a
.

Is this something that would be effecting this?? Or is it a container thing … putting a too tall iframe in a container … thus getting a vertical scroll bar. … I do suspect the <BR /> is keeping me from displaying iframes side-by-side.

This worked!

But, I think I’m trying toooooo hard to do something that I could just create two WP blogs to handle the what I want to do!

Maybe the next rev will be more idiot friendly with setting up the page pieces.

Getting a little closer to success …after doing a good bit of digging. Initially I could only get the dropdown Page Template choice menu when using the WP1.5 default theme … found out that you had to make sure and give the template a name … AND that name has to be enclosed in php thingies:

<?php
/*
Template Name: xyz
*/
?>

So, I’d probably be OK now, but I wanted to go to the next step of having the Page use it’s own template AND a different stylesheet.

What I’m doing isn’t working … and I’m sure I’m not referencing the desired stylesheet correctly.

If I have another stylesheet … xyz.css in a theme folder, how/what in the xyz.php invokes that stylesheet?

Just need a little push folks … .

THANKS!

OK, I’m starting to get it ….
So, I can define a template for the page associated through the Write Page administration panel.
Now if I want it to have a specific style associated with it … not the same as the style.css in that theme’s folder … I can define another XXX.css that I call in the page template. Right?

You’d make my day if you’d push my nose in the typical template code where that is … and how to make it load a particular XXX.css file!

I need more clarification on this for WP 1.5 … I think the new page feature has the ability to allow the new pages to have their own theme defined, rather than only having themes swapped for the entire site through the presentation tab settings (style-switcher) … but I haven’t been able to make this happen …. yet! Looks like I need to set up page.php files in my themes folder … anyone might offer more detail?

To restate … I’d like to be able to generate new pages, defining the theme for the new page …. not necessarily having the new page appear the same as whatever is set as the default theme per the presentation tab.

Thanks!

This really looks great … but, I got cold feet doing the step 4 surgery … adding the code at line 248 for WordPress. Could you show the proper insertion point? To a novice, that doesn’t appear to be an area you’d want to poke around … but then it might be the line numbering on my editor. Between what and what?
(And I’m tweaking wp-edit.showposts.php rather than b2-edit …etc. …. OK?)
Anyway … stick that line where????
Thanks!

Oh, that was my comment before posted as anonymous … anomalyous would be more like it!

OOOOOK,
It helps when you run the wp-install from the proper folder … strange it did anything.
But it seems to have run, there is a blog …. but when I try to login to the admin … nothing happens, blank page.
Hint?

OK, taking a step back … should I have manually created the DB?
If yes, then any suggestions on why the tables aren’t being created … ??
