Jen:

The technique suggested was to use Server-side Includes. Basically, you
create a text file with the information that you want to be included on
each web page. For my county site, the file is named contact.txt. Then,
to include this file, you use a specially formatted comment statement in
your HTML. When the page is loaded, the server scans your page source
looking for this comment & then obeys the command found there.
