Post installation

Slight problem here. I'm getting an increasing number of pages where the css isn't loading correctly. This seems to be the only line that calls the file:

  <style type="text/css" media="all">@import "themes/wireframe/style.css";</style>

However, some pages do not load this css at all. I am using the google web developers toolbar, and can pull up the css and edit it in the browser. When I paste the code from the file, it fixes the display problem.

Im having trouble with 'full html'

When I create my page it just displays the code that I typed and doesnt actually use the code.

There is something that i'm wondering on how it can be done. I've looked through on a few drupal websites like theonion.com, usmagazine.com and riflesnguns.com. The thing that i'm wondering is that how did they make their main page appear in the way they want to be. They are able to specify which nodes to be appeared on the main page and some other static nodes (like contact us and about us) not to appear.

I googled, searched the forums here, came out empty.
Can someone tell me how to add text between the babs(login/request new password) and the login form? Or after submit button(Log in)?
I tried adding the text in the user.module, i was not successfull.

Anyone have some ideas, suggestions? Thanks in advance!
PS: The add new user tab is disabled, only admins can register new members.

i have nav menus built through the categories module. the menus are just links to containers. i'm trying to get the total number of posts in each container to show next to the link to the container. so the navigation link would display as: services (20), stores (15) and so on.

Is getting the count to show possible in the categories module (i don't see a way)? If it is, where is the setting for it?

OR

if i need to roll my own query, i'm lost as to how to write the query that would come up with the right count of nodes.

I want to have an Articles Page, this page will contain links, Article 1, Article 2, Article 3, etc…

Say I have set up the categories, then I create the Articles Page, right?

Then do I add the links manually in the Articles Page for Article 1, Article 2, Article 3, etc…?

Such as Article 1

I lost about it all please help.
