my site is http://www.thetradesjournal.com
I hired someone to build a search feature for the MYSQL database.
He also built a web form to add contractors in the database nd a resuls page.

He says "Just integrating my pages into your design "templates" will be very time consuming in itself ". I thought it was a fairly simple process, but I am at a loss to explain how; as I am not technical.Is it same as the FORM tutorial?

Here is the search page
http://www.thetradesjournal.com/apps/search.php

and sign up
http://www.thetradesjournal.com/apps/signup.php

any suggestions how to have these added on the "templated site" for the same look and feel?

Thanks

No, it is very easy, using your template and an Iframe to place the search pages in. Have a look at www.navaldesign.info/therapy2/search.html

However, for a full scale integration, the pages should have been built already integrated with your template and / or requirements.
Have a look at these two page:

www.navaldesign.info/therapy2/register.php
and
www.navaldesign.info/therapy2/view_profile.php

This is an application i'm building and has, as you see, some of visual part already built in, then it will run inside an iframe. For now, i have limited access to only registering, as well as viewing a demo record (no option to save the changes) for demo purposes.
