will do. thanks again.

Thanks for the reply.

Well = I definitely got that part of things. As I noted in my albeit lengthy post, I’m trying to pull experts into a “static” php page held outside the wp file structure, that does not include the standard get_header(); and get_footer(); calls. Is this possible?

Or can I use a modified header and footer that I only use on this “static-ish” external home page? (I’m unsure if this page meets the needs of the standard static wp page – were this site “only” a blog.) This may require a manual instantiation of the wp-query sequence…

Sorry if I’m being unclear, I’m just getting into this project, and I want to have a few things clear before I get into the code. (Currently still working on the design of the thing, prior to functionality.)

Thanks again.
