    navigation bar without frames

    Hi guys,

    I need to put a navigation bar on the right hand side of my document (already within a table). Currently it's done by using tables - this was fine while the site was small but know I have to update every file to make one small change in the navigation bar - is there a quicker way of updating every page - or a way to get the browser to load the navigation bar without it being coded explicitly in every page and just link to a single document?

    Any help would be great,

    Tony

    what i mean is, if i've confused you already, i know i confuse myself, is there any way of telling the browser to include a section of code from another file into a certain section of a page.

    got it sorted - using server side includes - <!-- #include file="nav.txt" -->

    it fits in whatever's in the text file into the html document - lots of pages only one specification for the navigation bar,

    woohoo

    Tackle the Web with $5.99 .COM's from Go Daddy!
    also, SSI doesnt need to be just a text document, it may also be HTML! like this <!-- #include file="nav.html" --> but you need a seperate code for PHP, which you can search the forum, becuase it has been answered already.
