You can actually simplify this to <%= weblog.link + page.prev %>

What I'm wondering is how hard it would be to have page.prev and 
page.next be something other than simply URLs.  It would be great if 
you could say:

<a href="<%= page.prev.link %>"><%= page.prev.title %></a>

I poked around a bit in the source, and understand how the page objects 
are created, and how their previous/next elements are assigned, but I 
don't know how skel_entry is called, so I don't know what the object 
passed to it is, so I don't know how to get the list of entries or 
neighbors.

Sen~or _why?

Ben
