Headers in Using CSS

[jasonhalpern]

I'm trying to create a style sheet which will allow me to easily
maintain information displayed in the page header which updates with
some frequency. I initially created the header inside of a table to
help me format the images, text and background image. How can I
simulate this table using CSS so that I can make the update in one
location and have it replicate throughout the site? I'm hoping to use
the same logic to manage the information in the footer. Thanks in
advance for your help.

CSS is all about presentation, so you can (and should) use it instead of a
table to handle the layout of the header.

It isn't about content, so you can't use to include a large chunk of content
on lots of different pages. For that you should look at HTML
Preprocessors / SSI / Server side scripting

This isn't something CSS is designed for. You want:

Using CSS, you probably do not need a table.

footer. Thanks in advance for your help.

Same for footer. Same for recurring menu. Other 'include' files.
