Hi.

Thanks

No frames for me! I do make extensive use of Server Side Includes to put standard content into each page (look carefully and you'll see that most pages are called something.shtml - which gives this fact away). You can read up more about SSI in faq253-3309 and faq253-2000 .

I'm still using old-fashioned tables to lay out my pages (fancy new pure CSS layout site currently under construction!), it's quite simple to build a two-column site like this:
Code: 
<html>
<head>
  <title>2 col demo</title>
</head>
<body style="margin:0">
[COLOR=red]<table width="100% height="100%">
<tr>
<td width="200">
This is the menu column, it's fixed to 200 pixels wide.
You could give it a backgound colour or image if you liked.
</td>
<td>[/color]
<h1>Demo</h1>
<p>This is the actual content of the page, it fills the rest of the width.</p>
[COLOR=red]</td></tr></table>[/color]
</body>
<html>
The bits of code that I've coloured in red are actually sourced from SSI files. The actual page as stored on the server looks something like
Code: 
<html>
<head>
  <title>2 col demo</title>
</head>
<body style="margin:0">
<!--#include virtual="/template/top.txt" -->
<h1>Demo</h1>
<p>This is the actual content of the page, it fills the rest of the width.</p>
<!--#include virtual="/template/bottom.txt" -->
</body>
<html>
Note that if this page were served up without including the files (on my local PC for example), it's still a valid HTML document, just without the navigation bits. Also note that I can completely change the layout of all pages by simply editing top.txt and/or bottom.txt. Neat, eh?
