 * Is it possible to manipulate the content of a post as its called by the loop (
   or a single page request) ? e.g. lets say I want to create a page that displays
   four divs, and styles each one appropriately. Do I need to add the class or ids
   to the divs when I enter them into the post or can I add the classes as the post
   content is called by the loop? i.e. can I set up a template that says “Place 
   the first div from the post here and the second one there”?

 * If you use the HTML tab (and stick to it), you could enter your markup in the
   post’s content. Doesn’t seem worth creating a special template for just one post.

 * Well its for a series of posts to create a gallery style effect, as I mentioned
   in my OP I was aware that I could enter it in the posts markup, I was wondering
   was there a way to do it dynamically
