I need help with HTML - badly.

I need to create a navigation bar on the left side of my website, and I'll most likely be updating it very often.

For some strange reason, I can't use the #include command with my webpage, because my server doesn't support "SSI." Is there a way to do this that requires only HTML?

Cut & Paste?
(I used comment tags directly before & after mine on my old old site, so if I needed to change anything I'd do a Find on the comment, then paste the new navigation overtop of it)

Much as it will make certain people boo me off the stage, frames spring to mind as one possibile solution.

@Sledge: Boo ;)

Have you tried using tables?

[Grin] He wants the menu in a separate file, though, if I understand the reason for attempting an include.

Oh I see :)

There is another way to do it using a separate file, but it's a bit long in the tooth:

Add this code to the HTML:

<SCRIPT type="text/javascript" src="menu.js">
</SCRIPT>

Then save this code in a file called 'menu.js':

document.write('<IMG src="blitz.gif" width="100" height="10" border="0" alt=""><BR>');

Just add your menu using HTML code within the single quotes, the code will be added when the page loads the javascript.

Genexi: If I cut and paste, with 500 webpages, I'll be up all night redoing every navigation bar.
