 * Ok I Googled “<?php wp_get_archives” and basically won the lottery when I found
   the following on the 2nd page of results…
 * <?php wp_get_archives(‘type=postbypost&limit=500’); ?>
 * That’s perfect. Well. . . ideally I’d like to be able to display the date it 
   was posted next to it. Any ideas there?

 * “you didn’t answer the question regarding whether or not you are using the correct
   header for a page template.”
 * Aaaaaaaahhhhh.
 * See, I’m such a newb I didn’t even know you needed that. It works now, thanks
   so much for your patience with me.

 * The thing is, I tried this on my other domain, with WP2, without K2, just the
   default Kubrick, and it still won’t show up 🙁
 * I bumped up it’s permissions to 755 through just properties via FTP. What is 
   chmod? Sorry if that sounds lame, but I’ve never quite known what that meant.

 * Moshu, how would I make “another template.” I put a .php file in the same directory,
   but it’s not showing up.
 * miklb, I’m using WP 2.0, with K2 as the theme.

 * WOW! That’s exactly what I needed. Thank you guys so much.
 * My only gripe is that it works with normal posts, but not “pages.” How would 
   I go about having pages use permalinks?

 * You’re right, it was the scroll bar. I guess sometimes it just takes an outsider
   to point out the painfully obvoius. Thanks Beel, I could have stared at it for
   another hour and most likely not realized what was going on.
 * I must say, the WP support forum is the most helpful board I’ve ever visited.
   Thanks again.
