Some sites I maintain have a lot of pages and changing the names
of all the files is the last thing I would do, not the first ;-)

No, what I want is everything. I want the source view to look
sort of formatted to the extent of not being in one unbroken
unreadable line, I want to include footers and nav and repeatable
elements, I want nothing to be unduly slowed down, I want all
this to be easier than winning the lottery.

Guess I will do some trial and error messing about to see how to
eliminate the little problem I am experiencing. I guess it is an
odd one? Is there anything anyone wants to know from me that
might help them pinpoint the trouble?
