    Ok,

    I have a static home page for CMS reasons. I have a blog section as well. I need my blog post to go to a “post page” which yes in wordpress (settings > reading) just select the page. So I create the template, call the correct header which inturns calls the correct style sheet. The page works and looks perfect. Now when I go to set the “post page” (in the settings) so the post show up on it, It reverts to stlye.css when it should be using style2.css and is calling the wrong header???

    I dont think the code I have in my post page template is correct, does anyone here have the php code I need?

    this is what i am using
    post page template: < this is what i think is wrong

    <?php
/*
Template Name: diy
*/
?>
<?php include (TEMPLATEPATH . '/header_archive.php'); ?>

	<div id="content_box">

		<div id="content" class="posts">

		<?php if (have_posts()) : while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>

			<?php include (TEMPLATEPATH . '/navigation.php'); ?>

            		<div class="post_header">
                	<div class="post_header_img">
					</div>
<h1><?php the_title(); ?></h1>
<p><?php the_time('F jS, Y') ?><!-- by <?php the_author() ?> --> &middot; <?php the_category(' &middot; ') ?></p>
				</div>

			<div class="entry">
				<?php the_content('<p>Read the rest of this entry &raquo;</p>'); ?>
				<?php link_pages('<p><strong>Pages:</strong> ', '</p>', 'number'); ?>
<p class="tagged"><strong>Tags</span>:</strong> <?php the_tags('&nbsp; ',' &middot; ') ?><span class="add_comment"><a href="#comments"></a></span></p>
			</div>

			<div class="clear"></div>

		<?php endwhile; else: ?>

			<h2 class="page_header">Uh oh.</h2>
			<div class="entry">
				<p>Sorry, no posts matched your criteria. Wanna search instead?</p>
				<?php include (TEMPLATEPATH . '/searchform.php'); ?>
			</div>

		<?php endif; ?>

		</div>

		<?php get_sidebar(); ?>

	</div>

<?php get_footer(); ?>

    header:

    my header code is truncated for the purpose of not having really to need to show the rest. but you can see that i am calling the right css file…

    first , this is your header.php or header_archive.php ?
    second, in the header you postes, there is one empty call to a css…. (IMHO)

    they are the correct files… in my original post i just use style2.css and header.php for argument sake…

    what i mean is , that the link is empty in your code

    <link rel="stylesheet" href="<?php bloginfo('template_directory'); ?>" type="text/css" media="screen" />
