New to WordPress…is this possible to do?

    I would like to create a webpage on a current site. Then, take the content from a WordPress blog and link it so that all the content on the WP blog (text and pictures) is forwarded to the webpage instead. This would allow the end user of the site to click the “blog” button and pull up a webpage just like all the others on the site, featuring all the content from the WP blog and they wouldn’t have to leave the site to see/read it. Is this possible? If so, is it as simple as creating a place for the content to go (such as a table or div) and then information contained in the head? Or, will it be much more difficult? If someone knows and could point me in the right direction I would be greatly appreciative!

    Regards,
    Andrew

    rameshelp and esmi,

    Thanks for the replies! Essentially, and as easily as I can describe it this is what I want to be able to do:

    I will have a website, running on GoDaddy, that I have created in Dreamweaver. The website will be it’s own complete entity coded in HTML, using CSS and some Java elements. It will feature a button style menu, like most websites do, and one of the buttons will be “blog”. When a user clicks that button, I want them to be taken to a webpage that is built exactly like all the other webpages on the site. The content on this page will be content forwarded from the WordPress blog (like the last three posts or something). That way, the user can stay on the webpage and still read the blog…they do not have to leave the webpage, go to the blog hosted by WordPress, and then return to the webpage I have created. They can get everything they need all in one place. Does that make sense?

    Since I am building the webpage, I didn’t know if I needed to have a table or a div present to have the content that is pulled from the WordPress blog to dump into and display on the page or what? Just like text on a webpage, it needs to be present somewhere…so I didn’t know if I needed to create a table, a div, or whatever…then just place some code in the header telling the webpage to go retrieve content from the WordPress blog and display it there locally. Hopefully that clears up what I am trying to do and if it’s possible.

    Thanks!! I’ll check out the link esmi!
