I'm trying to make a JavaScript server side include so I only have to edit and save 1 .html file. Instead having to save every file and every new hyperlink that I make.

If you go to my page, www.pokerhungry.com on the left side I list like 8 links and each link is a .html link and I put all those links in each page. This is a problem for me because I'm going to be adding more and more links as I go and If I add more, I will have to save new links and new pages on every single page.

So I'm trying to do the menu on the left as a server side include in javascript but I can't seem to design it the way I want it. I tried to put CSS on it but it won't work. I guess I can only choose one at a time. can anyone help me make a menu with javascript like the one on my page. So I only have to call it once on my each page like this:

<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript" src="menu.js"></script>

It won't be considered a SERVER SIDE include, if you do it with JavaScript. Anything JavaScript is referred to as CLIENT SIDE. Although inserting information on each page with JavaScript is definitely possible, you should be aware that it will be much slower than actually doing it from the server. Have you looked into doing this with a server-language such as ASP or PHP?

No I didn't like the Idea of ASP you have to buy a bunch of microsoft products. I tried the SSI include suggestions throughout these boards that I posted and it won't work. I installed something called WAMP and it won't work.

And PHP? Did you consider that? It is free, and quite powerful.

Yeah I'm reading the tutorials on the w3schools website but they don't teach you how to do includes.
