Example: navigation.php <?php echo '<div id="navigation"> <ul> <li><a href="http://yoursite.com/";>Home</a></li> <li>.....</li> </ul> </div>'; ?> then on each page you wanted to use your navigation bar, you do something like this: <body> <div id="header"> <h1>Your Site</h1> <?php include('navigation.php') ?> </div> <div id="page"> ... </div> </body> Anywhere you include the php file, it will display your navigation. The downside is that all of your pages have to be "written in" php. If you just change the extensions to .php from .html then it should work fine as long as your hosting supports php.
