Funny, just now reading Heinlein's "Stranger in a strange land" to brush up on my sci-fi classics...anyway...
<link rel="next" href="./about.html" /> <link rel="next" href="./photos.html" /> <link rel="next" href="./contact.html" /> <link rel="next" href="./portfolio.html" />
prev (by the way, my example was wrong as it should indeed be prev, not "previous" as I originally stated) and next should only be used in a linear sequence of pages. You can't have a "one to many" type relationship like the above.
From contact page: <link rev="previous" rel ="home" href="./index.html" /> <link rev="previous" rel ="about" href="./about.html" />
Not quite. As the example is flawed on the first step, let's take another one: a 3 page collection (page1, page2, page3):
Page1 <link rel="next" rev="prev" href="page2.html" /> (my next page is page2, and i am the prev page of page2) Page2 <link rel="prev" rev="next" href="page1.html" /> (my prev page is page1, and i am the next page of page1) <link rel="next" rev="prev" href="page3.html" /> (my next page is page3, and i am the prev page of page3) Page3 <link rel="prev" rev="next" href="page2.html" /> (my prev page is page2, and i am the next page of page2) As I said, in practice it's enough (IMHO) to use just rel. -- Patrick H.
