[Javascript] Javascript fontsize control from external page

[Barry Conner]

Thank you Mike, that sounds like a great idea.  I didn't even know thewre was such a thing til you mentioned it, but in reading up on it just now, it sounds like a great way to do it.  So it sounds like several SSIs should eliminate the need for frames.  And I guess an SSI on the control bar Javascript *would* cause the script to act on the main page?  Or might it still just want to affect the control bar HTML?
 
Again, I appreciate your help and patience.  This is all still very new to me.

Can you use a server-side include?  If you put your menu/navigation into a single document (easier
to manage in one place) then use SSI in the appropriate place on each page, the markup (and
whatever script it's using) will be acting in the context of the current page rather than a frame.

Does that make sense?
