IIRC you are using Dreamweaver/Ultradev, right?

Well why not create a template, and use the built in SSI and/or Library
functionality to include elements that will be the same on all pages (eg the
masthead, footer, etc).

Whether you use CSS is entirely up to you, although I would reccomend it as
a good way of keeping content styled consistently.

HTH,
