    How do you create a page that includes you header and navigation page in a PHP file. SO, when you update your navigation page, you only edit it in 1 page and not all of your webpages (but the changes will be shown in all of your webpages).

    I've seen something like this... I think it goes "header footer here" etc?:confused:

    Thank you:)

    Just put your menu in a file and include it to the page:
    <?php
    include("menu.php");
    ?>

    include() or require()
    require() works better for inclusion of global variables for the entire php file
