Not validate HTML when links are disabled

Issue Summary

Don't know if this should be posted here, or PHPTemplate engine, so I'm trying here. When no primary, or secondary links are used, and I don't want display them, code will produce not valid HTML:

..in file attached...

This is not good - from validator.w3.org: Another possibility is that you used an element which requires a child element that you did not include. Hence the parent element is "not finished", not complete. For instance, head generally requires a title, lists (ul, ol, dl) require list items (li, or dt, dd), and so on.

(doesnt know how post HTML,m so I attached it to file...)
