[kitzi]

Hi,

This is the very beginning of the design of my site, I am building from a template and so far have a mock-up of a homepage made up, but now I want to make life easier for programming the site in the future, I want to be able to have the header Nav bar and left Nav bar in seperate files so I only have to change things once, this used to be done is frames but is it possible to do it in CSS now? Or do I need to look at PHP?

Any help appreciated :-)

Yep, PHP is your best bet.

DON'T USE FRAMES (I'm sure alexgeek will be glad to elaborate on this subject)

If you can wait one or two days till the next newsletter comes out, there will be a tutorial on exactly this subject. Till then you could check out PHP includes and familiarize yourself with PHP if you haven't already....

It's out and still hot..!!!
It's not a tutorial, just an article. Link Here!

or do you mean this one Here

[c010depunkk]

yep, the second one....

That tutorial is probably a little advanced, and is unnecessary for many sites.

For basic PHP, try Tizag's tutorial.

The newsletter is out now and I read the article and it looks great....exactly what kitzi needs.

I'll even be changing my code to this example now
