Attach blogger blog to website?
I have a website that I want to add a blog page to.
Has anyone done this yet?
The issue seems to be that I need to put my menu at the top of the blogger code, but either because of the code that's generated by XWD or the code generated by blogger, it won't work.
Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

Could you use an <iframe> in a placeholder for the blogger feed?

Coffe cup have a Blog app called Flash Blogger that might work. I haven't tried it myself but I think others have used Coffee cup products with XWD.
I am intending to start my own blog at some point but I had thought to just link to it from a button.

Here's the link in case you're interested in checking it out:

In these cases it looks like the CC software creates the files needed, then gives you an HTML snippet you insert into your Web Designer page that displays the results.

Since when do you need CoffeCup software, in order to get a Weblog?
Free (and very good) Blog systems are discussed here.

Currently you can only use websites exported from Xara Web Designer with a static layout. It's not possible to adjust the length of your site, as you would need with a blog. There is the workaround with a <iframe>, as Steve (sledger) mentioned, but if you don't like it or don't trust iframes, then you can't use Xara Web Designer for this task.

Don't know how other blogging software handles page size, but the CC one gives you a scroll bar when the text gets too large for the current page size. All a matter of taste. :)

Why iframe? The <div> may be just enough.

You mean by scrolling within this div - the same like Spinny is recommending?

Erm, you can scroll anything that you can put into html within a <div>. Inline frames should be used only in case when the content must stay as a separate html file. Most often this is due to the content located and managed on the other site e.t.c.
