Re: Change the user interface In reply to
I broke my pages up into "zones"

The top "zone" is a header.inc file.'

Below that is an advert.inc file

Then comes a navigation.inc file

Then comes the blocks of areas for the insertion of the links variables, and my sidebar.inc file.

Then comes a navigation2.inc file (usually the same as the file above).

Then comes the footer.inc and copyright.inc files.

Your page layout will vary, but it _really_ behooves you to come up with a generic page format, then put everything that is on more than one page into an .inc or .txt file to include. It makes site maintennance much, much easier.

Also, the next version of links will most likely parse include files that include files. I meant to ask Alex how he plans to avoid a recursive endless looping.
