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.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:black'>Thanks,<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:black'>Bruce<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:black'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black'>++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black'>Bruce Whealton, Owner Future Wave Designs<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black'>FOAF: http://whealton.info/BruceWhealton1/foaf.rdf<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black'>Vcard: http://whealton.info/BruceWhealton1/brucewhealtonvcard.html<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black'>Web Design and Development http://FutureWaveDesigns.com<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black'>http://futurewavedesigns.com/wordpress/<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black'>Web Technology wiki: <a href="http://futurewavedesigns.com/w/"><span style='color:blue'>http://futurewavedesigns.com/w/</span></a><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black'>++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++</span><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black'><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:black'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:black'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:black'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><div style='border:none;border-top:solid #B5C4DF 1.0pt;padding:3.0pt 0in 0in 0in'><p class=MsoNormal><b><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif"'>From:</span></b><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif"'> themes-bounces@drupal.org [mailto:themes-bounces@drupal.org] <b>On Behalf Of </b>Amit Vyas<br><b>Sent:</b> Sunday, April 24, 2011 12:04 PM<br><b>To:</b> A list for theme developers<br><b>Subject:</b> Re: [themes] Adding custom link tags to page head<o:p></o:p></span></p></div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:12.0pt'>If you are not comfortable editing the tpl files, you can go and crate the custom block and show it in to the header.
