Actually, I haven't used this technique, but I have read about it and I think I understand it. Sounds like you have it down, but try changing the .html extension to .txt. Also, the first <br> tag you have is wrong: <br< Following is my understanding of how to get this to work:

In the admin, when you add/modify a cat, enter the name of the file you want to use in the header or footer field. Examples:

header1.txt

footer1.txt

Then create the directory you need to put all headers into, and the directory for all footers:

/cgi-bin/links/admin/header

/cgi-bin/links/admin/footer

Then upload the txt file into the proper directory. The full path would look like so:

/cgi-bin/links/admin/header/header1.txt

This should work. The txt file is basic html, just the code you want inserted into the category page.
