Comments Question

Ok, I have a few questions re WP 1.5:

1 – I’m trying to set up a photolog at my art site and right now I’m in the early stages of just trying to get WP to work. My main problem right now is that the comments display automatically when you open the test index page: https://www.amadai.com/index-test.php

I have no idea why this is happening since I’m using the same entries.inc coding I use on my regular blog, and the comments are hidden by default there. Anyone know how I can make the comments hidden?

2- I also need to know how to a) make the comments form pop up in a new window, and b) make the comments themselves open in a new window. Somebody help me please?

Thanks!
