Updating picture on several pages

[waydown]

Hi,
I don't know if this is the right place to post this question but I think javascript might offer a solution. I have a 125 X 156 jpeg image with some text underneath in the right column of my home (.html) page and the same image and text in the right column of 47 other (.html) pages. When I alter the image and text in my home page I don't want to do the same 47 other times. How can I alter the image and text once and the alteration is reflected in all pages. Will be grateful for all help.

the image should just be a reference, so updating the image file shouldn't alter the html documents. To edit the html documents open all the files and use find & replace to edit the files.

another option is includes. this article provides a introductory overview.

in either case js won't be much help.

If you changed the image file itself it will be updated in all pages that call it.

If you changed the path to the image in your HTML, then it will only change in the file you alter.

If you need to have the same image and text in 47 pages an include would be the bets way. So you only have to change it in one file and it will update all the other pages that call the control file.

Javascript however will be of no help for that.
