Re: menu

Hi Rayne!

If you have SSI on your server, you could do it with a CGI script...create
the "menu", save it as its own file, then, when you pages load, they will
call that script to paste in that section of the page. You can use
environment variables to disable the link(s) on the menu that point to the
page the viewer is on. Then, when it's time to add/delete/edit your menu,
do it once, and your done!

HTH,

Mike
