This *can* be done in CSS using the :after Psuedo-element 
(http://www.w3schools.com/css/css_pseudo_elements.asp) but the cross 
browser support for this is very poor and can't be relied upon.

This *can* be done with Javascript, but not all your uses will/can have 
javascript enabled so this can't be relied upon either.

This *can* be done with frames, but there are accessibility/SEO problems 
with frames.

The winning solution is to use server side scripting to insert the 
navigation markup into a document, for example, here's how it could be 
done in PHP.

<html>
<head>
<title>my page</title>
</head>
<body>
<?php include "navigation.html" ?>
rest of content goes here...
</body>
</html>
