it would, but then ..welll.. we arrived to my actual problem.

i did what you said, i had my non-blog pages php-include head/foot.html.

the problem is the following:

1. i like to use relative urls
2. my head/foot.html are in $HOME/public_html/blog
3. now imagine a file, let's call it about_me.html living in
$HOME/public_html,
which includes $HOME/public_html/blog/head.z10n.
4. in that file, there is a link to about_me.html. but in that file,
it's <a href="../about_me.html"> because it's in the directory about it.
5. but when it gets included from about_me.html, then the link will
point to the directory above $HOME/public_html.

that's the problem :)

it can be solved with usinga absolute links, but i'd prefer not to use
them.
