Hello,
Here is the template that I started with. It was written to be compatible with the blogger.com site.
I've stripped away the 'css' for purposes of saving space. Is there anything in this that would give me the 'directory info' that you refered to in your previous post?
"...find where Blogger creates the page you want to embed Serendipity in."
Unfortunately, blogger.com support is anything but responsive. But then again, it is a free webserver and online doumentation is about all one can expect.
I will snoop about over there for information regarding 'the page'. Is there a name for this page/directory that I could use in order to search more effectively?
Meanwhile, please find stipped down template below. This is what I used to create my index page with over at "
http://www.politicallyoutspoken.com".
