contents of a table taken from another webpage or file

[deniseb]

I know I read somewhere how to do this now I can't find it.
I have numerous webpages (setup with tables) that all have the same menu in the left column of the table, which is constantly changing. Can I store these menu items on one page and have the other pages fill in the left column from that page? Otherwise, everytime I change the menu, I have to change every page. Thanks

Does your web host support php or ssi?

I think it supports ssi.

Just found a thread that talks about using <object type="text/html" data="http://www.menu.html> </object>

Would this work if menu.html contained my menu buttons and I put the above object tag on all the pages where I want the menu to appear?

ssi would be better to use than the object tag. Here is a tutorial. http://www.joe2torials.com/view_tutorial.php?view=4

Thanks! I will work on it tonight when I get home. Changing all those pages is driving me crazy.

Well, here I am at the beginning again. Asked the hosting company about php or ssi and they said "Your server supports php. Are there any configurations you need done
to php?" Can anyone tell me what configurations I need? and how to solve this navigation menu problem? Thanks!
