well i have my site up and running fine. the thing is when i want to add something to each page, i have to add it in by hand to every single page which is really time consuming, is there a way to have a master layout???

If you're working with frames, than just edit the index.html or index.php.

no frames, i have been using CSS to move things around, i know that alot of search engines really dont like frames!

Well I think if you have a website with many pages and you are aware of PHP, then you should opt for php..

You can then a common file where all of your links will be placed and then you can call those functions to place those links on your webpage.. this way you have to just change in that single file which will reflect in all those files that is using it.

Otherwise life is miserable, if you have many many pages and there are changes to be made

Yes.. There is no layout that cannot with integrated with php..
I have done many Ecommerce sites that is using PHP.
The other option is Frames..(but not prefered nowdays)

Well if you see this site.. I have used PHP.. but there is no such content that cannot be done in plain HTML. PHP chosen to avoid the pain that you are going through.

In CSS you can make a stylesheet that will be applied to all pages. You can then make the minor modifications to any other pages that you want. Just make your default.css or something of the sort and call it into each page....

well i had a css file, and it worked fine, but can i put html into that file also? i redid the site and i just copy the code i am using for css into every page, because the editor i am using doesnt show it if i dont!! but i am always looking for better site design and any help, ....

you should be using a css file to be an independent file. Follow along...

\root
default.css
index.html <- This points to the default.css file in the meta tags within the <Header><style></style></header>
html2.html <- same thing....

I use Dreamweaver for most of my web design. It works well for most and has an actual editor for CSS in Dreamweaver. I don't really like frontpage for anything more advanced than just basic HTML design.
