I have designed websites since the web was born, and that's a few years!
I have four classes of clients: the serious, the undecided, the hopeful and the joker.
The joker is the most common: they want a few static pages to insure a "presence" on the Internet, and they want that at the lowest possible cost (usually 10-15$ a page!)
The hopefuls are usually people who want to get-rich-quick, with "the one-off-idea" they have that is unique and will make them rich overnight.
(They are worst than the jokers, but it gives me giggles, and I would pay them for it!)
The undecided are far too common: they want everything they can get. You give them a price, and while you are developing their site, their imagination is galloping and they come back to you to "ask for more – but for the same price"…
The serious are rare, but it is where the business IS. They know what they want, you help them with the specs and the acceptance sheet. You establish a quote and they are not surprised when you ask 5 or 10,000$ or even more: they expected it, because they KNOW how complex a web application can be. They follow the development over the weeks/months and pay on the dot: they have signed your terms and conditions of sales…
Everyting in a package? You can't! There is too much available. I have tried and tried to make some sort of template (in code, not the "image"), but always come back with bunches of routines I re-use.
Always perfectly taylored to the application, and NO – EVER – pre-written packages like Joomla or RoR. 26Mb of code for a drag and drop facility??? :-D

To address exactly the same problem – Server side technologies came into play. (But they also address a lot more issues than that..)

Solution 1.
But for your problem, if you know a little bit of PHP, its a one line game (OR if you know your server uses PHP, just close your eyes and blindly include the following line on every html page you create)

<?php include("path_to_your_menu_HTML_file_name"); ?>

(of course, replace path_to_you_menu_HTML_file_name with the one appropriate for your context!)

Now with that line, you can put your menu in one file (the one you are referring to in the above code), and then include the rest of the matter in all your other files.

A little caveat though – you will have to name all your files as ending with .php (not .htm or .html).

So, if you know your server is running PHP and you have renamed all your files on the website from .htm (or .html) to .php and included the above code. You are all set to go.

The advantage fo this solution is that it doesn't depend on the client side browser, so you are sure that your client receives HTML only.

Solution 2. (Easiest One)
Use iframes…
Use this code:
<iframe src="included.html" width="450" height="400">

Adjust the src, width and height according to your need.

The advantage for you is that it keeps you in the domain of HTML. (no renaming of files!)

The thing with inline frames (the code above – iframe) is that it breaks on very old browsers (maybe a non-issue today) and search engines do not cache it.

Here is an excellent resource on iframes:

I'll answer this best for you – not just promote my own business :) . I’m the director of a web design agency on the other side of the Atlantic, in Scotland, UK. We do custom designs built in our own ecommerce CMS system. We have clients all over the world, not just the UK. That's option 1.

Otherwise option 2…. The place to find the best website designers is by going to web design galleries, here you will find the top quality designers work and / or possibly their own sites as well. You can then find ones you like the look of and find the designers by looking on the footer where there is usually a link to their own website.

Here is links to ALL the best galleries –

Just ecommerce –

Hope it helps!

Talk about content-filtering software, and about how countries like China prohibit access to certain sites on the 'net. (Look up "The Great Firewall of China" for more on that.)

You can also discuss the practice of moderation as it applies to blogs and web forums.

There's "soft" censorship, such as what occurs when certain sites are low-ranked or delisted by search engines or linking sites.

You might want to look at using Server Side Includes (SSI) to do this.

It also makes using things like Google Analytics a lot easier, you just put their code into your footer file.

The main thing to be careful about is that your syntax checker may fail to pick up some errors because the SSI files do not include the header. You can use an online validator to check for this. Also, some servers require that you use the .shtml extension for pages that include scripting or SSI.

Looks like a Div conflict. Footer is in the same Div as your Flash. Separating them should help.
Try this:
</h2>
</div>
<!– Footer was here –>
</div><!– End of Div id="content" –>
<!– Moved Footer out of the Div: id="content" –>
<div id="footer">
