 * There are a number of helpful threads on this:

 * In 1.5.x, your *home* page is either the index.php or home.php in your active
   theme’s directory. Also note that most themes are broken up into various templates,
   so that your document head may be in header.php, the sidebar in sidebar.php, 
   etc.
 * Lots of info on WordPress themes:

 * One piece of advice– work in codeview, and don’t bother with the preview. Since
   theme files are “pieces” of html pages (generated by php) DW can’t display them
   properly. Best to edit, upload, then test. If the page doesn’t work, use “view
   source” to troubleshoot.
