Newbie Questions

Hi,
I have done previous web development using PHP and am now moving to WO. During my time using php I have created an architecture that I am having trouble trying to replicate using WO. The way my php applications worked was that I had a layout script that would take the content for the page and place it in the appropriate <div> so that each page would be rendered the same. An example of this is having a website that mimics windows on a desktop (title bar, background, border, etc) and uses javascript to change the window theme (mac os 9, mac os x, window 2k, windows xp). Because all the layout was exactly the same on every page, reduced the amount of code to write.


I am struggling to find in web objects how I can achieve this same method of producing a consistent page layout with minimal effort. If this is possible could you please point me in the right direction in the documentation. Otherwise I guess I will just have to do a copy/paste on every component.

Is there a way for WO Builder to generate its tags in lower case. I have been writing xhtml markup and displaying the w3 validated icon. This is not a real problem for me personally, but it would be nice to have.

Are there any good web resources besides stepwise out there? Is there a better search for the mailing list besides apples one, eg cocoa.mamasam.com?

If anyone could provide me of their experiences coming from php (if there are any) it would be greatly appreciated.

Regards,
Greg
