 * Sorry about this but I just have one more question about the file names that 
   gets displayed in the theme editor in the wp-admin file. What dictates the order
   they appear? I want them to come up alphabetically but they come up in a order
   which I can’t figure out. I am pretty sure it’s not last modified/by file size/
   by file name/or by file description.

 * They’re listed “directory style”, that is alphabetical by extension first, then
   filename.

 * Fount out how to do it! Mine might be a little different because I still use 
   some coding from Wp 1.2. But mine is organized by when they were uploaded into
   the directory. I deleted all the files in the theme directory and uploaded them
   one by one and woila! Works perfectly. Thanks for all your help though, and Kafkaesqui
   I would’ve never found the file without your help. 🙂
