Hi everyone,
using DWMX - PHP - MySql (only started on databases and PHP 2 weeks ago)
I have a navigation part on my website (old and in need of a chance) which lists all the various art media someone can get courses for at this moment. See on the left hand side of the page at : www.artgalore.co.uk/acrylics.html
This part returns on all pages and because the template section of my program did not work when I made the site, I have to change them manually on each page when there is a significant change.
Thanks to the people on this forum I have been able to generate a lot of information dynamically (the revamped site) and I wanted to know how to make this navigation box any easier to use.
Each link goes to an html page with info. Do I have to put the URL's in the database and a query in dreamweaver ?
Also... if this is possible, am I right to think that i then will have to change all these html pages into php pages in order for the coding to work ?
Thanks for your help
THANK YOU GUYS FOR HELPING ME OUT WITH PREVIOUS QUESTIONS ON HYPERLINKING WHICH WORKED MARVELS !!!

Why not use a server-side include for the navigation?

If the pages contain PHP scripting, yes.
