I want to make a website with a global menu on one side that then brings
content up in another part of the window. One way to do this is with
frames. Another way is to have every single page on the site have the
same menu. However, that means that adding a menu item for a new page on
the site requires editting all the pages. I am trying to stay clear of
frames because lots of people harp on them for various reasons.
I thought there was some style sheet command that generates html code as
it is interpreted. I figured I could use a style sheet file to generate
and position the menu items on the page. Every page would read in the
style sheet, but if I want to modify the menu I only have to change how it
is constructed on the fly by the style sheet.
I though the style sheet command was something like "write", but now I
can't find any reference to it.
Is this the right way to do this? If so, what is that "write" command,
and how is it used?
Thanks.
