newbie taking over--huge confusion!

I recently inhereited a webmaster position for a site using shopsite. The
previous webmaster managed to use HTML templates for the navigation and
header portions of all the pages, even the product pages generated through
Shopsites CGI. Now I want to add something to the navigation and my ISP
yelled at me for even thinking about using custome HTML templates. Has
anyone else done this?

Please visit a page on my site to see what i mean... this was generated
through the adding a product template, not using 'order anywhere'

Thanks in advanced

I don't use custom templates, I use text 1 for my page info. If the
navigation you are looking to charge is in the header or footer, then using
the universal header and footer option would be the ticket.

Also if your navigation is on the left, select text 3 on the left side and
you can alter the navigation whenever you want.

Thanks for your help. Your first guess was what it was (so obvious looking
back haha). The former webmaster just had a clever header that included the
side navigation. I wish he knew the merits of documentations, though. It's
just polite heh.
Thanks again

Andrew
