Hi, I am trying to create a page that follows the same theme as my site. I have the HTML and CSS that I created but the page is not as uniformed as I would like it so I was hoping that this module would make it so. I followed the instructions (or at least tried). It is very confusing for me; I made the file (key).tpl.php and put my html in the file; I am not sure where in my HTML that I am supposed to put the given codes or if I am supposed to substitute $key with the page name with or without the $ or leave it as $key. I'm not sure where in my theme I am supposed to upload the file...The instructions seem to be for people who are very familiar with Drupal or PHP. I am new to Drupal (less than 3 weeks), and have only been learning web design for less than 4 months and am self teaching. Can someone please explain to me in layman's terms how to create a custom page using my own HTML but with the same template as my site. Perhaps I can do this without a module. This is the error that I am receiving:

custompage could not find an appropriate theming function or template file for this path [glitter].
The viable options (in ascending priority) are:

* 'phptemplate_glitter' in any module
* 'THEMENAME_glitter' in a theme with the name THEMENAME
* glitter.tpl.php template file in a current theme

Please make sure at least one of these exist and returns a non-empty output
ATTENTION: Theme engine is strongly cached in Drupal versions 6 and up and if/when you add a new tpl.php or a theming function, you need to clear cache before you can see any changes.

Thank you in advance

Never mind. This was just too confusing for me. I just made a whole new page using the same markup that my site uses and put my code in the body. Then I put the link the new custom page in my navigation menu; It looks just like the rest of my site. Thank God for Dreamweaver.
