I have about 10 pages, give or take a few, on a website I'm building for the company I work for. On all of these pages are the navigation links, which work well. In order to start improving my coding skills, I'm trying something different. (Yeah, I know: if it ain't broke don't fix it! But how else am I going to improve????) I want to be able to have the navigation links in a separate file and have each page link to that page -- much like you would do with a frameset, but I DON'T want to use frames. This company is rather old-fashioned and I don't even want to begin to try to explain frames to them. I had a devil of a time trying to explain mouseover to them! 
I learned how to do CSS and that's going to be the next generation posted -- right now it's not. Can anyone give me a clue as to how to do what I want to do? Thanx bunches!<br />

<br />
You will need to use ASP, PHP or another serverside programming language to do this but it isn't hard once you know how.<!--content-->Have you thought about using SSI (Server Side Includes)? If you are not familiar with SSI, here's a chance to improve your coding skills. <br />

Looks like Goldilocks answered you first.
<!--content-->Hmmmmmmm, ASP and PHP are hubby's area of expertise, I haven't ventured that far yet. I may be reaching for the stars, so I think I'll just leave it alone for the time being.<br />

I looked at the link you gave me and it looks like a bit more than I want to get into right now. But I WILL revisit it to learn more on my own. I did learn one thing: why some sites have https instead of the familiar http! Thanx bunches.<!--content-->
