Can I link all my html pages to one source page?

[ulga]

I have a website, which I made using html. On each page there is a footer with my email, linkedIn, and twitter links. I want to be able to change the footer on all pages at the same time without having to go through all 50 pages individually.

I was hoping there would be a way to create a new html document with the contents of the footer, and then from each page link to that html document. Then I would be able to change the one html document and it would change it on all the pages.

is that possible?
thanks,

You can do it with a php include and put the code into your footer:

<?php
include ('footer.php');
?>

Put that code on each page in the footer, then create a new footer.php page with the html you want in it. eg:

<?php
<a href="mailto:me@nowhere.com>email me</a>
<p>blah blah blah</p>
?>

Then when you want to change all your website's footers, you just have to change the footer.php page.

Yes you can do that. You need to use a stylesheet (css).

<link rel='stylesheet' href='something.css'> In a stylesheet (.css file) you can give elements a unique id or class that applies to elements with the same id name or class name. Visit w3schools.com and learn css.

Oh, sorry, I thought you meant change all the documents style... Anyway yeah you can use php to include files. Like the guy above me said.
