   I'm trying to get a client's "Blog" page to display a different right sidebar than the rest of the pages. I entered this into the page.php file of the template:

   Where it used to say:

   <?php include ('sidebar2.php'); ?>

   I changed it to:

   <?php
     if (is_page("blog")) {
     echo '<?php include ('sidebar2.php'); ?>';
     } else {
      echo '<?php include ('sidebar3.php'); ?>';
     }
   ?>

   This code was taken directly from a site that it works on. All I changed is what is in the echo '' part and removed some elseif lines.

   Can anyone tell me why this isn't working? I think it's because I have <?php ?> in there more than once but don't know how else to write it.

   Thanks

   Found the code by searching Google:

   <?php if ( is_page('blog') ) { ?>
   <?php include(TEMPLATEPATH.'/sidebar2.php');?>
   <?php } else { ?>
   <?php include(TEMPLATEPATH.'/sidebar3.php');?>
   <?php } ?>

   Thanks!
