Thanks, Richard,
It seems pretty elegant and simple, but it does require that
your visitor arrive with JavaScript enabled. What proportion
of those visitors have it turned off?

To use JavaScript to include, all you do is this:
Step 1: ...
Step 2: ...
Step 3: ...
This is simple, and there surely are other ways to do it (probably even
better ways to do it with JavaScript). The benefit here is that you only
have one location of the navbar code to edit (much like a library item) but
you can edit it with any text editor. This doesn't require any proprietary
tool, any server side functionality, any real programming skill--as
evidenced by the fact that I did it ;-)
