[themes] Adding custom link tags to page head

[Bruce Whealton]

Thanks, I would not have thought about putting a theme in the header.
Anyway, I didn't mean to say I am not comfortable editing tpl files.  I
haven't written too many functions to run inside of template.php but I
probably could.  I guess I might have sounded ignorant by asking if I should
or needed to put the absolute link inside the $header variable, when I could
just hard code it before or after the $header variable appears inside the
page.tpl.php and it would just appear before or after it.

Thanks,

Bruce

If you are not comfortable editing the tpl files, you can go and crate the
custom block and show it in to the header. With this it will be added in
$header and will be displayed in the area you want.

Hello all,
         I've been learning how to code themes including using the .info
file and the page.tpl.php and node.tpl.php and the variables that can be
set.  So, I want to add a link in the head section of the page, above the
body tag.  There is the variable $header that seems to handle all of this.
This is set in the template.php file.  So what is the best practice for
hardcoding a link.  I want to link to a foaf file.  So, I'm not sure, should
I go into the template.php file and edit the $header variable or can I just
add the link tag to the page.tpl.php right after the call to display the
variable or maybe right after?
Thanks in advance for any help,
Bruce
