[support] Overriding page.tpl.php for node type...

[Blake Hall]

Basically, you should be calling the template file page-node-[url].tpl.php

Take a look at http://drupal.org/node/190815

The override priority for pages looks like this:

   1. page-node-edit.tpl.php
   2. page-node-1.tpl.php
   3. page-node.tpl.php
   4. page.tpl.php

Cheers,

blake hall
