    PS. I suspect this is a theme Brian Gardner dropped. The link to his site that is included in the theme no longer exists. And i cannot find any reference to it on his site. Also, its v1.0, my guess is that it was not really complete, or fully up to his specs.

    When I commented out…
    position: relative;
    …under #footer, it places the footer boarder underneath the image (instead of on top).

    when I added…
    height: auto;
    …i was unable to identify any change.

    I wasn’t totally sure what you were asking me to do on the third item. Currently the code looks like this…

    #content p img {
    	float: left;
    	border: none;
    	margin-right: 15px;
    	margin-bottom: 10px;
    	}

    So I tried all three variations…
    1st variation
    #content p img, #content img {
    2nd variation
    #content img {
    3rd variation (which is the default)
    #content p img {

    None of those seemed to affect it any differently.

    Further Testing
    However, I did try commenting out the following…

    #content p img {
    	/* float: left; */
    	border: none;
    	margin-right: 15px;
    	margin-bottom: 10px;
    	}

    After doing that, everything showed as expected. The footer boarder was the correct distance (padding or whatever) from the bottom of the picture.

    Just to be sure, I then went in and modified the image code from…
    <img src="https://www.domain.com/image.jpg" alt="" />
    …to…
    <img src="https://www.domain.com/image.jpg" alt="" align="left" />
    …and the problem returned.

    Again, this seems exactly alike to the problem I posted about HERE. And again, I tried applying…
    <div style=”clear:both;”></div>
    …after the Content call in page.php and it had no change/effect.

    Excellent, thanks for the feedback everyone!

    As a result I’ve installed CentOS 5. And this weekend I get to learn how to use Linux. ??

    nope, but i’m here now looking for a solution. ??

    Running WordPress 2.2.1 on Firefox 2.0.0.7 having this same issue.

    Disabling Javascript corrected the issue. (in Firefox choose Tools > Options > Content… > uncheck “enable javascript”

    Hopefully it is not present in WordPress 2.3

    ps. sorry for bringing back the dead

    When I say “I want are 4 front pages” I’m referring to the appearance of 4 front pages, ie smoke and mirrors. I realize its not practical to think of them all as actual front pages. But from a visitor standpoint, it might as well be 4 front pages…though its 1 front page + 3 category pages made to look exactly like the front page. Perhaps what I’m trying to do is beyond WordPress’ ability without my knowing PHP.

    Anyway, I’m now back to method 1. And I’ll just live with the fact that my menu items will not stay highlighted.

    I do not consider this a win but I’m tired of trying to figure it out. Thank you rudolf45 for all the attention you’ve given my thread.

    Any suggestions, please let me know, I’ll keep an eye on this thread. And revisit the issue at a later time.

    I do understand they are different. In essence what I want are 4 front pages. One that displays all posts, and another for each specific category (there are 3). I wanted it to appear as though Posts were just being filtered when switching between the categories/types-of-posts. This is why I chose to go with the <!--more--> tag. That would allow me flexibility with my posts, and allow pictures etc.

    I’ve had a chance to look at Template Tags again. It seems templates is the only way to achieve what I would like to. I’m just having trouble making sense of it all.

    Are there any resources for basic templates? or is that specific to the theme and thus would need to come from the theme author?

    I’ve taking various .php files from the theme (archive.php, index.php, page.php, etc) and tried stripping them down to what I understand a template to be. No success thus far.

    @rudolf45 – Sorry for the confusion. I looked into Tags for a short while. I’ll have to continue looking into this.

    @sadish – I tried this once before, and on your suggestion, I’ve implemented it again. Look at the site now. As you can see, it is not recognizing/”heeding” the <!--more--> in each post. Though it does list the “Read Full Post” after it has listed the full post.

    crap, i just screwed it up trying to implement a specific category being listed on a page….FYI the current implementation as seen on the site may very as i’m screwing around with it.

    Please leave any suggestions on how i can accomplish listing posts belonging to a specific category on a Page.

    Though your link is what I was looking for. I can conclude from the link that my implementation in method #1 is fundamentally broken. In order to fix the menu highlight option, which this theme correctly implements. I have to break the theme by making it think the /category/meanderment requires highlighting.

    And as you pointed out, Method #2 is also unnecessary/redundent doing the query. However it looks like that is, at least on a theoretical level, is more along the path to the correct solution.

    Which solution, as far as i can tell at this point; is to create a template which calls for posts under a certain category. And while I was able to achieve that by copying the Archive.php code into a new template file. The problem in that implementation, is that, for posts displayed where only showing as excerpt(), as the archive.php calls for. This kills the whole “filter” idea, or the idea that you are just switching between which posts are being displayed.

    I’ve tried messing with the excerpt() part in archive.php but have not been successful in changing it to the_content().

    hmmm, no resolution. I am experiencing this same exact scenario. The purpose behind different URL’s is that i have multiple domains hosted on one account. Thus my urls are such.

    Actual location: https://www.primarydomain.com/secondary-domain-files/wp/

    and i have the secondary domain forwarding to that location so that the user only types
    https://www.secondary-domain.com

    Thanks everyone.
