    Hello, i am developing a website and i want to be able to have a template and if i edit the template all of my page are updated as well. How can i do this?

    I have uploaded my template to http://www.justinbieberonline.net/ and i have been told to use a template engine but i have tried and can't seem to get it to work.

    Where it says "mainCol" & "altCol" is where i want the page content to be.

    Thanks,
    Chris(GeelongTECH)

    I've actually never found a way to do this, I usually try to perfect the "base" template page and then use that for my others.

    You need a CMS system like WordPress to do it well. You can just update the header or footer template and all your pages got sync.
