SSI is what I have used all the way. All Linux hosting and never MS in my 15+ years of doing this running on Apache. <BR>
<BR>
Typical builds have been mySQL w/PHP on XHTML. Other sites (my legacy stuff) is HTML 3.2, Javascript and Perl and very low-band in design. All hand-coded and working from templates that I have created over time. <BR>

You should have standard header and footer includes for such a website.<BR>
You change it one place, and all pages are updated.

Would you use the server side include (SSI) feature of the web server for that, or are you thinking of some other technology?<BR>
