    Yes I have the whole thing inside a DIV with an ID that is styled in a stylesheet, but not a SPAN –does that matter?

    It is this:

    <div class="fp_post_bsr_details" style="float:right;">
         <?php the_time('F dS, Y'); ?> |
         <?php _e("Tags: "); ?><?php the_tags('', ', ', ''); ?> |
         <?php _e("Category: "); ?><?php the_category(',') ?> |
         <?php comments_popup_link(__('Comments (0)'), __('Comments (1)'), __('Comments (%)')); ?> |
         <?php _e("Author: "); ?><?php the_author(',') ?>
    </div>

    And in the stylesheet is says:

    .fp_post_bar_details a {
    	font-size:10px;
    	color:#999999;
    	font-weight:bold;
    	text-decoration: none;
    	border: 0px;
    	}
    .fp_post_bar_details a:hover {
    	font-family:Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
    	font-size:10px;
    	color:#CCCCCC;
    	font-weight:bold;
    	text-decoration: none;
    	border: 0px;
    	}

    What am i missing?

    allright,

    I updated the code a bit… (?) :

    <body>
    	<div id="page">
        	<div id="header">
                	<a href="<?php echo get_option('home'); ?>/"><img id="headerimage" src="/wp-content/themes/redout/images/redout_logo.png"/></a>
            </div>
    <!-- header end -->
    
    <!-- index start -->
          <div id="container">
                <div id="content">
    
                 <!-- loop start -->
                 	<?php if (have_posts()) : while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
                    <a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark" title='Click to read: "<?php strip_tags(the_title()); ?>"'><?php the_title(); ?></a>
                    <?php the_content("Continue reading '" . the_title('', '', false) . "'"); ?>
                    <?php endwhile; ?>
                    <?php next_posts_link('&laquo; Older blog posts') ?> <?php previous_posts_link('&bull; Newer blog posts &raquo;') ?>
                    <?php else : ?>
     		<h2 class="center">Not Found</h2>
    		<p class="center">Sorry, but you are looking for something that isn't here.
    		?php include (TEMPLATEPATH . "/searchform.php"); ?>
    		<?php endif; ?>
                 <!-- loop end -->   
    
                </div>
                <div id="leftcol">
    <!-- index end -->
                 	sidebar
    <!-- sidebar start -->
                </div>
                <div id="rightcol">
                    rightcol
                </div>
          </div>
    <!-- sidebar end -->
    
    <!-- footer start -->
            <div id="footer">
                footer
            </div>
        </div>
    </body>
    </html>
    <!-- footer end -->

    So far, it seems to be working, and the loop is generating posts as can be seen here at my URL. I think I’m on the right track, but i’m still very weary about any mistakes i might be making, that should be recognized now, before i’m too far into the development.

    The above code is not yet split into seperate header, footer, sidebar and index files. I thought i’d get the page to work as a whole first, and then split it into its template parts.

    Also, I have not yet added all the php-code that WordPress uses. I’m just trying to figure out what goes where in CSS.

    I hope this clarifies the question I’m asking, but perhaps your answer still remains the same. I’m going to take a look at the templates you mentioned now…

    In the meantime, if anyone has something to add, please do so. ??

    Maybe I should make my question more specific:
    I have built the basic structure of my index page, which will contain “the loop”. I’m just starting to grasp the loop concept, but i’m unclear on the following:

    In the default theme, a call to the sidebar is made after the loop, right before calling the footer. I think my index file has the call to the sidebar inside the loop (but i’m not sure). Is this going to be a problem??

    <body>
    	<div id="page">
        	<div id="header">
                	<a href="<?php echo get_option('home'); ?>/"><img id="headerimage" src="/wp-content/themes/redout/images/redout_logo.png"/></a>
            </div>
    <?php /*?>header end<?php */?>
    
    <?php /*?>index start<?php */?>
          <div id="container">
                <div id="content">
                    content                  <==== DOES THE LOOP GO HERE?
                </div>
                <div id="leftcol">
    <?php /*?>sidebar start<?php */?>
                 	sidebar                   <=== I PLANNED THE SIDEBAR HERE
    <?php /*?>sidebar end<?php */?>
                </div>
                <div id="rightcol">
                    rightcol
                </div>
          </div>
    <?php /*?>index end<?php */?>
    
    <?php /*?>footer start<?php */?>
            <div id="footer">
                footer
            </div>
        </div>
    </body>
    </html>
    <?php /*?>footer end<?php */?>
