Hi,
I would like to have a navigation on the left side of quite a few pages. Actually I want it to look more or less like this page of the codecharge website.

I already made the navigation page, but what would be the best way to include that page on all the other pages?
Probably i need something as frames, but i cant find them in ccs.

There are probably couple ways to do this:
1. Use frames as you suggested. I personaly do not use frames, however I think that you can create one HTML page (like index.html) that is the Frame Document defines the frame structure and includes other CCS pages as frames, with the .asp or .php extension.
Here is some info on how to create frames:

2, Do not use frames. Take a look at this common approach:

I also include a Menu page into various other pages. You can do this by selecting the "Include Page" icon in the Toolbox (Forms tab).

Thanks Peter,
I like your approach better than the frame option. But when i create the main page like
header
menu content
In the browser the content is shown BELOW the menu instead of next to it. I could use a table to correct this, but do you know what i could be doing wrong here?

Dik,
You can create HTML table and locate includable pages (header, menu) and main page controls inside table’s cells. Please check default page of Portal solution, it utilizes <table> in its layout.

Thanks Nicole.
This indeed does the job.
Creating the table and the included pages for each page is a little bit boring, but it works like charm.
