Thx!
Your best bet would be to make your page dynamic. While this approach involves learning some scripting language, it is totally worth it.
Basically what you would do is to create one file for your menu bar and then include that file in as many pages as wou want. You can use PHP for this purpose.
For example:
Create a new file in dreamweaver. File->New..
Then select dynamic page and then PHP.
On your recently created file type "this is an included file" and save it with the name my_file.php.
Crate another new file. File->New->Dynamic->PHP and save it as index.php
On this file type the following code:
<?php include "my_file.php"?>
Upload these 2 files to your webserver and open index.php with your browser.
You should see "This is an included page".
You can place the code
<?php include "my_file.php"?>
in as many different pages as you like and when you need to change the contents of the file my_file all your pages will display the updated content.
Note: for this example to work, you will need a hosting provider that supports php (most of them do) or to have apache and php installed on your computer. (If you are using a mac, they both come preinstalled)
use the edit > "find and replace"
make sure to select
"find in" entire local site
"search" in source code
