I think we've had this in the other thread I mentioned...you need to use the blog_wrapper.php to call, or else the s9y URL matching logic gets screwed up. When using Blog.php I think you'd need to rewrite some $_SERVER variables, but out of the box s9y's embedding is only meant to be called from one central wrapper file, not multiple ones. You could definitely get that to work somehow, but I think there's some work to be done with some general PHP programming knowhow...

Anyhow; the formatting problem is because you have enabled the embed mode; in embed mode, your own script needs to make sure that the HTML head and foot and CSS references are outputted by your own wrapper, serendipity does not do that for you in embed mode. (Which is kinda the point of embed mode, that you put s9y into an existing site, not on its own)

Embed mode really is something meant for people with their own PHP frameworks who understand the workings of PHP output buffering, URL rewrites, wrappers and such. Even though it's a unique feature, it's not something that IMHO can be easily made available for people without coding skills...

(Don't mean to sound harsh, and I believe the formatting issue can be solved of course, but you might stumble accross other problems that might be some more work along the road...)

  ob_start();
require 'index.php';
$blog_data = ob_get_contents();
ob_end_clean();

echo $blog_data;

  exit;
}

If you cannot support embedding your product as you claim. I must contact my ISP and inform them to remove ability to embed from their descriptions of your serendipity.

I'm sad that my remarks affected you that way. Sorry for that, this was not my intention. I'm having a flu which might make me a bit too impatient. However your tone was MUCH more confronting and personally insulting than what I said; the only thing I wanted to express is that embedding with s9y is not the most userfriendly feature and requires some work, patience and mind-wrapping.

But let's try to start again, if you want.

What does your blog.php contain, and why is it needed? Basically you should call blog_wrapper.php as the singular entry point to the s9y interface. ...
