OK, this is what I did:

Created a generic.html file. Add the embed tags

unzipped the ############## embedded template and edited the 1 line to point to my generic.html file

Used the ZenCart admin to install the ############## template.

Now I navigate to the homepage and see that the stuff from the Generic.html is being used as a warapper. VERY cool!

OK, now what files got edited? IOW, how is this working?

I looked at generic.html and it seems unchanged. I looked at the files on the templates/##############_test directory (where I installed the ############## stuff) and those files (incl. tpl_main_page.php) look unchanged, as do the files in the template_default directory. I looked at index.php as well. No changes

So what file got changed and where? I would now like to do this to the other pages (other than generic.html). Do I run it once for each page, each time editing the ############## embed_config.php file to reflect the path of each page? How exactly does this work? I also nedd to edit some paths & files on the "generic.html" page and the other pages. Which files do I edit, for things like loading different stylesheets for each individual page that needs a different one?

How would I say, create a product_info.php page in ZenCart (via adding items to the db) and then get that working within my pages? Would I open up one of these "embedded" pages and then just replace the code within the EMBED tags with the code from the product_info.php page that ZenCart creates, editing out banners as necessary? Seems to me like that is the way it works?

Getting closer...
