You know what the solution is.

I said I knew what A solution was. I’m asking for potential alternatives. If there aren’t any, I accept that.

You preferred extra headache instead of a one-step configuration.

No one on this forum seeks extra headaches — just advice on coding. If you’ve got any for this particular dilemma, please let me know.

Thanks Kafkaesqui. I’d read the multiple loops section, but it seemed (still does) a bit advanced, but I’ll try to make it work.

I answered part of my question — this seems to work:

<div id="content" <?php
$children = wp_list_pages('title_li=&child_of='.$post->ID.'&echo=0');
if ($children) { ?>
class="narrowcolumn"
<?php } ?>>

But how do I construct the “then” part of the argument so that it uses “widecolumn” for certain pages?
