Do you use server side includes for your header, footers, nav etc... or is there a better way?

didnt you hear? ssi isn't web2.0 enough.

I just use php includes most of the time. Or CF includes, depending on the environment we are working in. Naming your files .shtml could potentially bit you in the ass if you want to use other dynamic content on your docs.

yes, saves a ton of time if any changes are needed...

server side includes? yes. always. Who wants to update a hundred webpages when the contact info in the footer changes. F that.

you can do any xhr to suck in an html template for your header/footer/blah blah
then you're all web2.0-n-chit.

i just used it for the first time with subnavigation menus. i update them monthly so it's a huge time saver to do it in only one place.

the first time I used includes like 6 years ago I was quite pleased with myself. Plus when you have some jerkoff client you can charge them as though you made changes to 100 pages and it takes 2 seconds to change the whole site.
