I then created a phtml file called pagelinks_top.phtml
It resides in >>>> layout / template/catalog/navigation/pagelinks_top.phtml
I assume the the same code that forms top.phtml is a good place to start for my base code
I then take code from footer.phtml or part of it
so this is my effort Dont Laugh and Help please but it does not work
