Hi Patrick,

Maybe more of a philosophical question here, but: why would you want those links on all pages (assuming this is client work, yes)? Who are they useful to, if not other developers and/or yourself?

Yes, it's for client's site. Not out of fame but perhaps marketing purpose. My dedication with extra hours of work for validating markups, css and section 508 (note, I don't just rely on validation tool but my eyes) on each page pay off, because I got a few gigs from companies and web design firms to do web standards compliant sites :). If I only put a link on the home page, it only mean the home page is validated, not other pages. Clients want their clients/ audiences know that each page is validated and section 508 compliant. Besides, this is a good way to promote web standards I think.

It's quite tedious to make the links manually, page by page.

Include files are your friend (even humble SSIs, if there's no server-side scripting language available)

But include file can't generate individual links correct?

for examples
home.html >http://validator.w3.org/check/referer?http://www.site.com/ home.html about.html > http://validator.w3.org/check/referer?http:// www.site.com/about.html

I see Chris got me the answer I needed. Thanks, Chris.
