    in order to be able to convert an HTML file to a WordPress theme, you need to know some XHTML, CSS, and PHP.

    you can learn everything you need at w3schools.com and at WordPress.org/

    If you have it up somewhere that I can have a look at it I can shoot you a price on coding it into WordPress for you.

    It depends. Do you want to have the exact same design in Wordpress or you just want to have the current content as a post with a similar design?

    It's really simple. Select and copy (ctrl+c) everything on the html page. Then open up a new post/page in wordpress and paste (ctrl+v) everything into the visual area for that post/page.

      This one works only if he want to have his html page inside a post, but not as the whole wp blog

    theentry, I know.

    If all he wants is one page though, it can definitely handle it. I'm not sure of the entirely of the site, but if it has multiple pages, he may just have to redesign it for wordpress. It depends though.

      No, it won't. He will end up duplicating tags, including the whole < head > section.

    It's never been simple, especially for the sites I've worked with. I usually end up outsourcing it and getting optimized results in return.

    No I want it as a base template, as I want all of my pages to use the same template but with different wording etc.

      Pay someone to do it. Building a WordPress theme takes familiarity with WordPress, it's not just a cut-and-paste kinda thing.

      OR -
      Learn how to do it yourself. There are a lot of theme-related tutorials around, tons of information is available.

        I have paid someone to do it for me, it was becoming annoying.
