I've got a right nav menu which I list my brands.
When my supplier runs out I would like to take that name brand off but I have over 400 pages...is there anyway to do this effectively?
Thanks,

Are they dynamically created pages, or static? (Or do you know?)

Nah, page rank is fluctuating greatly as of late. At least, I know my sites are doing the same thing.

Your best bet, though it will be a pain, is to convert your pages to dynamic, which will involve pulling out the right nav menu into its own file and just referencing that file in every other file.

I've had to do that before on a site with hundreds of html pages, and it's not fun the first time. Definitely worth it in the long run, though.

Get yourself a text editor that has tabs, I use editpad. and open ALL the pages in it and hopefully if all pages are the same (code wise) you should be able to change them all with on click.

And it should go without saying, but make sure you backup your site first. If you're editing a local copy (which you should be), just make a copy of the folder that contains all your website files. Doing that has saved me several times.
