 * Forget it…. Such a NOOB… once I realized where the linking was being set, I figured
   it all out… I see it there on the edit page… Thanks.

 * I re read what you said and figured out the issue…. when I am inserting the media
   to the page i HAVE TO specify where I want it to link to. I completely missed
   that.
 * Can I change that link once it is embedded or do I have to remove and re-insert
   all the images?

 * in that specific case I will end up having it link to a pdf of our catalog. on
   some of the other pages i want to set the link to another page or whatever.
    
   how do I change the link? I have tried changing it on the image details in the
   media on the edit page I have tried changing in on the actual media. I have tried
   to change the permalinks (although I may have been doing that one wrong)

 * yes, it does the same thing…. I can go to the product page and when I click on
   the image it sends me to a default page with the image and name in the body.
 * ** I did what you suggested and deactivated all plug ins and changed themes adn
   the results were the same.**

 * I’m not sure… Can I switch themes without loosing all the stuff I have set in
   the various features of this theme (which by the way is just a custom thing with
   a few bells and whistles developed by the person who setup the site long before
   I got here)
    and if not can I backup everything and restore it should things 
   go awry?

 * Thank you so much. You have definitely gone above and beyond to help me get this
   thing going.
    And, I will agree, again, with you that this is set-up isn’t ideal.
   My plan is to get this to where I want it for public consumption and then I can
   at my leisure build a site from the ground up. And thanks for the debug tip, 
   I wasn’t aware of that ability. All the best to you.

 * ALL MOST THERE!!! I took your code and put it in and nothing showed, but i played
   around with it (hoping to get lucky) and now it shows but there is a formatting
   issue… if the description line is short (less than 260 wide) all is good but 
   if it is longer it pushes everything down.
 * [http://crankshaft.net/products](http://crankshaft.net/products)
 * I put an “echo $matches[3];” in the div for the images (i figured that would 
   put it below the images) but it isn’t keeping a 260 width limit. I know basic
   styling but if i put a “style=”width: 260px”;” before the echo nothing shows 
   up on the page again. what would be the context for setting the style width (
   or any other) in there?

 * I am still having trouble with the regexps. I did what you suggested with putting
   the line of code in and getting the response:
 * [http://crankshaft.net/wp-content/uploads/products-test-text.rar](http://crankshaft.net/wp-content/uploads/products-test-text.rar)
 * I saw that when I did that the description that I had entered into one of the
   forms showed up where as it doesn’t when the page is normal. Just have to figure
   out how to call it up.

 * Thank you for your response. It is a thorough and good explanation. I understand
   about 80% of it.
    I agree and would rather get rid of this if I could, But I 
   am just learning my way around WP and am using the process of making it work 
   correctly to learn how to do it better. And I can’t start cutting out sections
   until I see how it interacts with everything else. REDESIGN of the site is definitely
   part of this process but it will come as I proceed.
 * Hopefully I can answer the parts that you need by explaining the process on my
   end a little better.
    It appears that the person who set the site up did design
   a custom theme. in the functions.php (I think) it adds a basic page entry form(
   pic1 and 2) called “Product Listings”. this form serves to add content to the
   pages. I can select which page on the form. The Script separates between the “
   products” page and all other pages. On the Products page I put our different 
   divisions and their applications. the other entries are funneled into sections
   on the individual divisions pages to display machines. in the products.php I 
   see the code that I put in my first post. which applies to the “product page”
   which generates this page (pic3)
 * As far as a text tab, i don’t see one. I will provide the page source code and
   a link to the page if you can find it in there. (I think that is what you are
   asking for.)

 * If you neeed anything else to figure it out let me know… I will fiddle around
   with it as I get a chance today, using what I understand about the regexp you
   explained.

 * Yes it will always occur in the same spot.
 * right now it goes; image1, image2, ul1, ul2
    I want it to go image1, image2, 
   description, ul1, ul2
 * As far as I can tell the line of code is
    `<?php preg_match('/(<img[^>]*\/>).*(
   <a.*<img[^>]*\/><\/a>).*(<ul.*<\/ul>).*(<ul.*<\/ul>)/s', $content, $matches);?
   >`
 * But I am lost with all the ><\/*>< stuff. and I don’t know what to call the text
   to reference it…
    I could put the description in an OL to make it more identifiable,
   I would just need the list formatting removed before placement in the page
 * and what do you mean by raw text? what I enter in the admin form?
