    how to specify often-used text just once?

    Is it possible to specify in a html document that you want to resue a piece
    of text?

    For instance, I have a navigation bar with links. This navigation bar will
    be used on all the webpages. AFAIK, this can only be done by putting the
    navigation bar itself in all the html douments. So as soon as something
    changes in the navigation bar, you need to fix this in all your pages. Also,
    this is for static text, no scripts, no server support.

    With CSS is is possible to do thinks that look a bit like this, you can
    reuse background images. I am looking for something like this, but then for
    foregound text.

    It looks like it's not possible, but I could have overlooked something.

          You could use an IFRAME element:

              Put the complete HTML for the navigation bar in a separate file. While
              complete for the navigation bar, this should be an HTML fragment (no
              <!Doctype>, <HTML>, <Head>, etc). Do NOT give the file an HTML or
              similar extension. Upload the file to your Web server.

              Wherever you want the file to appear in an actual HTML file, put the
              following:
              <!--#include file="xxx" -->
              where xxx (with quotes) is the navigation bar fragment file with its
              path on your server relative to your Web root. When you upload such a
              HTML file to your Web server, you will have to declare the file
              executable.

              Note that this requires the Web server to have server-side includes
              (SSIs) enabled. You may have to work with the technical help staff for
              your server's host to put the navigation bar fragment file in the proper
              place and then construct the path to the file for the #include.
