using a htmlfile(with navbar) as input for other pages?

Is it possible to use a html file (with a navigation bar) as input for other
html pages? This way that all those pages have the same navigation and i
only have to make changes to that one file. I don't want to use frames to
resolve this problem... ideas anyone?

Thanks in advance

Yes. And this is a good thing to do. Strip your navigation bar of its
head and body tags - any surplus html other than the stuff you need.
Then, get your mouse at the appropriate insertion point in the other
web page; use script objects, and select the Server-side include
button. Select your navigation file.

You have hit on one of the best methods of avoiding the use of frames.
You could do a number of these includes, and build up your page in a
modular way.
