 * Hello,
 * I currently have my blog in a virtual /blog/ directory. I want the blog header
   to be different from the headers on the other pages off my site.
 * I know how to create new templates and where to put them in the themes folder.
   What I am unsure of is how to code the page.php file properly so that it adds
   the alternate header template (headernew.php) and not header.php.
 * Thanks,
    BW
