Thanks for getting back to me so quickly, Ryan. It could be an iframe issue as I have only a rudimentary knowledge of what that is. I noticed when I used the + to expand the selection, it expanded to take in the whole page. Not sure how to try with the "raw HTML" but thanks for checking that out for me.

I understand what you mean about the page looking like a blog out of the box, thanks to your explanation.

The plugin really sounded perfect for me because I've been trying to find a suitable theme so I can turn the current "placeholder" HTML site into a fully functional WordPress one.

Here's the big question: can I see how it will look as a static page before I make it "live". The guy who created the HTML page for us is no longer available so I'd hate to lose it or mess it up, even if it isn't in WordPress. Sorry for so many questions!
