Howdy.

Does anybody know how I could do this...

I'm redesigning my site and removing the frames (I used to have a vertical split with a menu on the left). The new layout has the menu "built in" to each page. Now, the problem is if I update the links on the menu, I have to edit every single page.

Does anybody know of a (simple) way of specifying a page/file that will be the "master" menu and when each page loads, it inserts this "master" menu?

BTW, I'm just using text-based links but I'd rather not use a java menu or similar as I want to have a lot of contol over the menu items' appearances. Also, I'm using Dreamweaver, but if it involves some HTML work, I know enough to get by.

Cheers,

TGM

Does the server your site is hosted on support either SSI or PHP?

Ya

SSI and PHP are the way to do it, as well as ASP.

Cheers for the info, people.

I'll see what my host offers, muck about with some ASP then give up... :)
