Hi,

Try to implement the following code technique to include the header as well as the footer in your html program. This is not the complete program, it will only give you basic idea to implement header & footer:

<title>header & footer</title>
<style type="TEXT/CSS">

<body margin:0; padding: footer:<length> 1 header:<length> 1 >
}

divDemo#Footer
{

bottom:0;
position:absolute;

left:1;
width:80%;
height:footer-<length>;

}

divDemo#Header
{

top:0;
position:absolute;
left:1;
width:80%;
height:header-<length>;
}

Hi,

It's not easy to include header & footer in the html document. You should try to chane the name of html file which is with "*.html" to file which has "*.php" extension.
For example , suppose you have the html file named as "Demo.html", then you will need to change it into "Demo.php". Even after the changing extension your file will work finely.

Example:

<?PHP INCLUDE("nameOF file.html/htm" ;?>
