creating a new website..question
Hi, I have a newbie question to creating a website...
Do most people only use HTML to make their websites?
I was wondering how to update a website with a lot of sections fast...like
for example,
If you have a lot of sections on the LEFT hand side, and you want to make a
template and only edit stuff in the middle of the page..if you know what im
talking about, how would you do this instead of creating 20 pages and having
to edit each and every one of them when only a simple mistake..err..i know
its some other language you use not HTML, but i forgot what it is..and also,
where to learn this language?? thanks..

Welcome to TWF
would the stuff on the left be content or navigation?
you could do this with Javascript, by including a .js file where the left section goes and would only have to change one file, this works off the same way as having header and footer sections.
but you'd still have to make 20 pages of content
Or you could us SSI (server side includes) or have it run of a database.

Or php and use includes for the design so the page only has calls to includes (header and footer) and then content. PHP easily allows for nested includes.
