Create a page programatically with C# in SharePoint 2007

Not sure if this is asked, but searching hasn't quite yielded what I'm looking for. I have a page layout already, what I need to do is programmatically create a page in the Pages library.

I'm fuzzy on the details, but somehow I think I will need to open the Layout, then stream it to a page and then save the page. I'm unsure how to go about this.

The page is context sensitive so I think I'll begin with using SPSite and SPWeb to get access to the lists.

What I'm unclear on is, how can I get the Layouts? I think I should be able to add a page somewhat like this:

 SPWeb web = SPContext.Current.Site.OpenWeb();


                    SPList Pages = web.Lists["Pages"];
                    SPListItemCollection splc = Pages.Items;


                    foreach (SPListItem spli in splc)
                    {
                        if (spli.Name == "lmIntraTopicsArticle")
                        {

                        }
                    }

                    SPListItem sli = splc.Add();
                    Pages.Update();
                    SPFolder PagesFolder = Pages.RootFolder;
                    byte[] layoutContents = new byte[20];
                    SPFile myNewPage = PagesFolder.Files.Add(PagesFolder.Url + "/TopicWindowArchive.aspx", layoutContents);
                    web.Update();

Now I need to figure out how to add content from a layout. Update in a few if I figure it out.

Thank you,

The trick is to get a PublishingWeb object. That contains the layouts.

See here for an example

PublishingWeb publishingWeb = PublishingWeb.GetPublishingWeb(web);

string pageName = “MyCustomPage.aspx”;

PageLayout[] pageLayouts = publishingWeb.GetAvailablePageLayouts();

PageLayout currPageLayout = pageLayouts[0];

PublishingPageCollection pages = publishingWeb.GetPublishingPages();

PublishingPage newPage = pages.Add(pageName,currPageLayout);

newPage.ListItem[FieldId.PublishingPageContent] = “This is my content”;

newPage.ListItem.Update();

newPage.Update();

newPage.CheckIn(“This is just a comment”);
