Frontpage has a really easy tool called "Include Page"
- it only works within the web/domain though (I
understand Dreamweaver has it too for all the MS
-haters out there). I use it extensively. All the ads
and most of the navigation on my sites are "includes".
You can also use JavaScript to do an "include". A
database is over the heads of most folks here, I'd wager
(at least it's over my head). You can use the
JavaScript tutorial here to do an include instead of
doing syndication as well:

Granted - all this means the site has to be designed with
this in mind in the first place ... <g>
