[WM] Strange problems

[Brian Wisti]

Hi Wes,

I guess the question would be "how different are the two WMK files?" Are they 
for the same site, or are you using the same basic technique for 2 different 
sites?  

Now if you'll excuse me, I have a PHP site that needs to be reworked **back** 
into a WebMake site :-)
