crashcourse,

You will want to use SSI (Server SIde Includes) or Templates. If you create a
template with your navigation bar...any page you make from the template will
contain the navigation. Then if you want to make changes to the nav, just make
the adjustment in the template, and that will update all your pages.

For me SSI works best! Create your navigation in a separate .asp file.
Remember just the navigation bar code in this file, so be sure to remove all
the html, head, body tags, just leave navigation code.

In your webpages you will call on this include file as such:

<!- - #Include file="yourNavigationFile.asp" - - >

So for future changes all you have to do is update the
"yourNavigationFile.asp" and that will update in all your pages.

good luck
