This comes in handy when editing the Wiki (I am used to Wikis, and  
found an "edit" link on top useful). Moreover, this area indicates the  
location of the page within the Wiki. What do others think ?

* I changed the Lout header to be a link
* I think the top area should be kept, because it gives info on the  
page location within the Wiki and allows to quickly edit it
* I did not found where tags or attributes were uppercase :/

* Did that too :)

Thanks a lot for your help, I will make the modifications to make it  
pass the validation test!
And well, I can still make a special "blue and red links" option  
available on the webpage ;)
