Hi,
CSS should be peripheral. Several pages can share the same stylesheet and
should do so if they bear a commonality (duplication is always a bad idea),
e.g. include <link rel="stylesheet" href="/styles/yourstyle.css"
type="text/css" /> between <head> and </head>. If you want to add this line
of code to many files in one fell swoop, you could use GNU/Linux tools, e.g.
find . -maxdepth 1 -type f -name '*.html' -print |
while read filename
do # print all filenames
(
sed 's/<head>/<head><link rel="stylesheet"
href="/styles/yourstyle.css" type="text/css" />/i;'
$filename >$filename.xxxxx
mv $filename.xxxxx $filename
# replace output files with original
)
done
The same strategy goes for menus. Menus are better written in a single place,
which makes them easier to change without pattern recognition and mass-file
replacement. If you don't use a CMS, you may wish to add a menu with a
complete set of links and disable individual to-self links manually, page by
page.
Hope it helps,
Roy
