Question about links and navigation...

[Dan Miller]

Ok, here is what I WANT in my webpage:
I would like a system of links for navigation on the left hand side of the
page.
I want this same system of links throughout my entire site, HOWEVER, I do
not want a FRAMES page.
Is there a way of setting up links so they can be exactly the same
throughtout the entire website (example, if i wanna change or add ONE LINK,
it will be refelected in all of the other pages).
I know you can do this with a FRAMES page, but I wanna do this without using
FRAMES.

Take a look at this website:
http://h2wiki.halowiki.net/wiki/Main_Page

See the links on the left hand side?? Thats EXACTLY the kind of page I wanna
do, without frames.
Am I outta luck, and will I have to code every single page with a set of
links, or is there something I can do to maintain the navigation through all
the pages in my website???
Thanks. I am using FrontPage 2003, and any help would be appreciated.

I did a basic search for 'em in the Help Files, but to no avail. Oh well,
guess frames is my only option.
Good enough I guess!

You can't have searched very hard: This is the result of a search simply
using Frontpage Help: It has all the info you need:

Some FrontPage features require special FrontPage information called
metadata (metadata: Data that describes other data. For example, the words
in a document are data; the word count is an example of metadata.). It the
some of the content types are unavailable, you may need to add FrontPage
metadata to your Web site. To learn more about FrontPage metadata, see About
FrontPage Web sites in the See Also list which is visible when you are
connected to the Internet.
To add FrontPage metadata to your Web site

that contains your Web site.
No folder or site name will appear in the Site name box.

information to your folder, click Yes.
