laying tiles onto wood

    Hi all,
    hopefully someone can help us out here.
    we want to lay rectangular porcelain tiles in our hall. having recently had new(expensive) internal doors fitted at each end of this hallway our problem now is that the door fitters left the door frames 25mm up off the hall floor in the assumption that we were fitting solid wood floors there at a later date. So now we have to somehow raise the tiles up to meet the underside of the door frames in order to avoid leaving very visible gaps between the two.
    ive been advised that putting down a double thick layer of tile adhesive probably isnt the best way to raise the tile height.:D:D.
    Another suggestion we had is to glue chipboard or plywood onto the concrete floor and then tile directly onto that which would certainly give me the right height.
    is this a good idea or is there a better way?
    And is there a certain type or grade of board i would need?
    any advice or suggestions will be welcomed with open ears.
    thanks in advance.... maervyn...
