I just today got a webhost (read a ton of user comments in the webhosts section) and all and am currently in the process of learning CSS. There is one thing I'm interested in however. Can anyone point me in the direction for creating modular websites?

What so I mean by that? I mean I have the page split into a couple different sections and some sections are reused (like a news panel) over and over but I'd like to be able to edit it once, upload it and have all my pages use that. I'm trying to do my page using mostly CSS, so I'm not going to be using any frames or anything like that. Since each CSS div is like its own entity, I'm thinking there should be some way to edit each one that can be used on multiple pages.

Thanks a lot in advance.

EDIT: Okay, I think after a lot of googling, I may have found a way with CGI.. but I'm reluctant to learn that language if I can do it easier.
