    OH MY GAAAWD I’m so stuuuuppiidd. I completely forgot to set up absolute url’s in the txt file. I am LMAO at myself. Looking for complicated when I needed to think simple. Very embarrasing. Thanks man.
    Sure glad I stopped by the forum again before I went to bed.
    Thanks buddy.

    Thanks for the great link :),
    I’ve downloaded the cheat sheet, the guide for beginners and the guide from Apache that he references in his page. It’ll take few days, but I’ll read every last page if I have to, I’m gonna get this to work dangit.

    oops, spoke to soon.
    the menu.txt is working great, the links show up and their clickable now but for some reason when I click on links like “blog” instead of going to the blog page it just adds that url to the end of the previous url.

    IE: I click on my news tag and go to ‘/rootdirectory/tag/news/’ and the menu looks great, but when I click on “blog” – instead of taking me back to ‘/rootdirectory/blog’ it takes me to ‘/rootdirectory/tag/news/blog’ which is a 404.

    All the other links are still working including the footer menu. It’s only the 5 pages linked to from the menu.txt.

    Guess I gotta do some reading like I said, but at least now I know it IS possible thanks to you.

    Stuck it in right at the beginning and it works great! Got my menu on every page I’ve checked so far 🙂
    Man I wish I understood htaccess better. ’cause that’s was be-a-utfull and easy!
    I’ll be reading up on htaccess on line for the next few days when I get a chance. May be able to work around my other problem with 2.7’s (unofficial) paged comments bug.
    Send me your paypal email to ‘quit.smoking.4ever@gmail.com’ and I’ll buy you a beer :), I really appreciate the help.

    Unfortunately I don’t know the first thing about modifying flash scripts, or even what software I would use to try and do it other than Dreamweaver which costs the same as 2 months of my food budget. Lot of time to go without eating to try and learn flash. I was able to change my banner.php to use an absolute url to call the flash movie and that worked great but like I said I don’t know how to change it in the swf file.
    Right now I’m not using permalinks so that it works, but I really wanted to use the permalinks feature for seo reasons as eventually the site will become at least partially a commercial site.
    I kinda figured it wasn’t going to be possible but was hoping somebody here had a trick to do it.
    I actually created a bunch of dummy directories that had nothing but menu.txt in them, but quickly found out just how many dynamic url’s wordpress creates. I’d have to create a million of em LOL
