June,

Since you have taken the trouble to look at my site I think I had better 
explain why I put the Sources at the end of each page rather than as a separate 
file.

Due to the size and complexity of my site when I update I only add the new and 
amended pages. If I had a separate page for the Sources then the references on 
each unchanged page would be inaccurate since Legacy would renumber each 
reference with the update.

To explain what I mean: Consider Page 1 with three references ie 1,2,3 
(obviously). Now on updating I add a new Source to this Page which becomes 
reference 4. Thus after Page 1 the next available reference is 5 and not 4 and 
this continues throughout the updates. By putting the Sources at the end of 
each page then the references are specific to that page only.
