 * I’m not a coder at all, but I can figure out what’s going on for the most part.
 * I’m trying to get soem code working that will choose a certain layout for a particular
   category of posts (my photo blob – category-9).
 * I am using the Arras theme, and I think I’ve located the section of code that
   selects the layouts and stylesheets. I’ve tried to insert code that I found [here](http://codex.wordpress.org/The_Loop_in_Action),
   on WordPress, that will choose a specific layout for a given category. I’m just
   not sure of syntax since I am not a coder (keep getting syntax errors in Dreamweaver).
 * Here is the code:
 *     ```
       function arras_add_layout_css() {
       	global $arras_registered_alt_layouts;
   
       	if ( count($arras_registered_alt_layouts) > 0 ) {
   
       		if ( defined('ARRAS_FORCE_LAYOUT') ) {
       			$layout = ARRAS_FORCE_LAYOUT;
       		}
       		else
       	    {
       		if ( is_category('9') ) { // Load special CSS for "Photo Blog" category 
       		{
        			?><link rel="stylesheet" href="<?php bloginfo('template_url'); ?>/category-9.css" type="text/css" media="screen" />;
       	 		}
                   else
               	{
          			<link rel="stylesheet" href="<?php bloginfo('stylesheet_url'); ?>" type="text/css" media="screen" />
       			<?php } ?>
       			} else {
       			$layout = arras_get_option('layout');
       		}
   
       		?><link rel="stylesheet" href="<?php bloginfo('template_url') ?>/css/layouts/<?php echo $layout ?>.css" type="text/css" /><?php
       	}
       }
       ```
