Cascading Style Sheet and footer HTML
Hi
I would like to add text to the CSS footer - is this possible. There is already a footer
At the moment each page has a footer already- ideally what I would like to do is add the footer text to the CSS so it will automatically update each html web page. So when I need to change the footer I do it from the CSS -
The current CSS sheet is as follows:
#footer {
width:780px;
margin:0px auto;
clear:both
}
And the html web page is as follows:
<!-- Footer -->
<div id="footer">
<p>© Test Footer 2007</p>
</div>
So I would like to add the above footer to the CSS and remove the footer from the html page -

Who is Participating?
No, this is not possible. CSS is meant to separate your design from the content. It has no ability to be a templating system.
Since you are using Dreamweaver, you do have some ability to do this from the software. You can make the footer a Library Item and that will allow you to do a single edit to update all pages. You can do a sitewide Find and Replace to make the edit. You could switch over to a DW template (not recommended). Finally, you could create a server side include for the footer.
All of the above will allow for a single edit to maintain the footer.

Depends on the server and scripting available? I assume Apache? Is this a static HTML site or a PHP site?
If you are unsure, switch to the Library Item advice. It's essentially the same thing as SSI just run from the DW framework.

Ok let me try and revert. Since we are on this topic can I use
