I am in the porcess of creating a website using SSI instead of frames. I have a few questions regarding the structure the website should take.

At the moment I have a page that contains what is displayed at the top of the website, a page that contains a menu and a page that contains what is displayed at the bottom. Then pages are then included in another page which makes up the structure of the website.

The structure page is what replaces the frames and is basically all the menu's and the layout.

What I am doing at the moment is creating a folder for all my pages and putting a copy of the structure page into each of the folders.  Then with the structure page in each folder I include the page that I want shown in the main part of the whole layout.

Hope you are with me so far

I don't think this is the best way to do things and I start to have problems when for example I want to use dynamic content.

Should I just have one page with the top, menu and bottom pages?

I should I include things when applications do not have header and footer files?
