making a site using html and css........?

What you're referring to in the web world is referred to as a template. Most blogs use these, as do content management systems such as joomla. The take the content you write and feed it in to the template for you.

Regular html doesn't work "automatically" like that, but if you're using an html program like Dreamweaver, GoLive, etc. it may have a template feature you could just as easily use. Check with the instructions of your html program to find out if it includes a template feature.

If you're only using HTML and CSS, then you have to write every page with the same header, footer, and navigation. There's no way to automate the process with only HTML.

To automatically build pages you need to use a server-side scripting language, like Perl or PHP.
 
You could make the pages php includes, and the pages for the header, footer, and navigation would be HTML that you link too in the php page.
 
You can copy and paste all the html and css needed then make a template page (and just save as the files as you go along..

Or what you can do is copy the html and link the css page to the new html page and name your content something different in each page.
 
i have started coding a site using html and css but the css is in a different file to the html anyway... i have made the 1st page and was wondering how to get it so that the header,footer and leftnav was automaticly put on every page , thx in advance
