   I'd like to pull specific values from the page's custom field. In this case it's a product model number. I've tried adding <?php the_meta(); ?> but it displays the name and the value. I've read the codex but have overwhelmed and confused myself.

   And ideas on how to simply pull a value based on the name?

   <?php echo get_post_meta($post->ID, "name", true); ?>

   Used within the loop

   Perfect thanks. Is it possible to seperate values with a colon or semi-colon or do I have to create a new field each time?

   example: name=type
   value=indoor, outdoor, daynight, network

   just remove the true I believe, or you may have to set it to false...
