How do I skin mambo with my frontpage templates?

[Guest]

Dreamweaver has this ability, but I don't want to switch, I love my FP!
Thanks for your input and help.

The way I would approach it is to "skin" FP to match the skin you use for Mambo. Put Mambo in a subweb with a link to your FP home web.

I have to ask. What is "skin mambo?"

It's a dance you do naked?

skinning an app isn't all that hard. you first have to come to an
understanding of how it's expected to be skinned. are there certain
template files?

Mambo is a PHP app isn't it?

Mambo is a wonderful CMS or content management open source portal program,
and, what I mean by skinning it, is that I want to apply my frontpage
templates as the graphics skin for managing a particular area of a site where
content management will be crucial.

Tom-

Im so glad to provide for your amusement. I am fully aware of the fact that
none is needed. It is, however, what I want to do.

Hey......

I was just posting a reply to Tom Willett's post. I was NOT poking fun at
you or seeking any amusement from you at all.
