HTML - Best Way To Update Web Page

Hi,
I have a project that I am working on, where I have a Default page where I have links to various pages which contain various product information for products which I QA.
I have on the default page a link to a master sheet where a person could see the information from all of the sections on one page.

What I would like to be able to do is update the various sections and then be able to click the link for the Master sheet and see the updated information.

Is this possible?

Hope that makes sense

I recently just added an RSS feed to my website, and I was wondering how to update it....Do I have to edit it in Notepad, save it, then upload it again?

Also, when you subscribe to an RSS feed on Google, is this "headline" thing supposed to be the most recent story, or is that supposed to be my site name and link to my homepage? I'm very confused, as I added like 10 items to my feed and only 2 show up (one of them taking place of my headline for some reason).......Here's the code:

Code:

I am creating a webcam and my software ftp's a new jpg every 2 minutes. It overwrites the old jpg.

The problem is that most browsers (IE, Safari, Chrome) see a jpg that is hours old and has been overwritten 60+ times. And when those browsers see the webcam page, they see an old photo.

All three of these browsers see the same photo / time - overwritten hours ago.

It does not appear to be a browser cache issue because the browser / computer were off or offline at the time that photo was uploaded. I can turn a computer on and see a photo that was overwritten hours earlier.

Firefox appears to be an exception. It shows the current photo and the webcam page works properly (although I have at least one Firefox user who reports a problem).

Here is the link directly to the jpg that is being uploaded via ftp.

The webcam software I am using is EvoCam.

A refresh on Firefox shows the latest photo. Not on the other browsers.

What the heck?!

I've got a menu I've made in fireworks that I've got to copy to about 20 pages every time I update it. Is there any way to make this process simpler?

The company website I manage is growing to the point where I won't be able to update it all by myself. I need to find a tool that will allow people with no html experience to update their section of the site. Does anyone have any recommendations? I want it to be as easy as possible for them.

The menu for my website needs to be updated often with new subcategories, etc. My website is all in HTML/CSS and has a lot of pages. Whenever I update the menu, I need to update all the pages on my site. Is there a simpler way to do this -say edit the menu on another file and have the changes be reflected on all the pages for my site? Also note that the menu is using CSS/JS files attached to the html file.

Thanks in advance!

Hello everyone at HTMLforums.

I'm writing up a rather simple layout for a small sub-site (take a look here): http://wintercarroll.co.cc/legendaire/. I plan on having that single side bar with links to various pages. As an example, if someone were to click on Characters, there would be a page of short profiles, and a list of links on the side ever present while you are in the character section. I was wondering if there was an easy way to have this update without having to go though every character page and copy-paste a new link in every time a page gets added? On that same not, I've seen sites with the expanding and contracting menus with the click of an icon (usually a '+'). How does one go about that?

Hi all,

I have a sidebar on my site that I want to put a latest news section in and I want it to be the same in all pages at my site. My problem being that I don't want to update all the pages in the site every time I update the latest news section.
I'm wondering if there is any way (other than frames) to 'link' to a separate file in which I change the content every time I update the news and then all pages are updated accordingly. I've thought about using a MySQL database to hold news content and then use php to retrieve it but this seems like overkill given that I am confident there is probably an easier way?

Any thoughts?

Thanks
Aaron

Hi

I am designing a form to update a template i have created. The idea is to leave the form with a user and they can input details which will update a template i have designed for use with ebay.

However i have designed it using javascript and when this updates my template it doesnt actually fill out the data, it is only taking the data from the intial form not actually making a new hard copy with the data?

My code:
