I totally forgot to mention that tim, its several times php and htaccess has saved the day...

You do not have to rename all your pages if you use PHP. Just add the following line to your .htaccess file.
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php .html'
That will tell your server to interpret all .html files as .php files. The nice thing is, because of how php works, any pages that are just normal html will still work fine as well.

If you do not know what a .htaccess file is, one guide is here:

I would use php, ssi, or css. Php is probably your best option but then you have to rename all of your pages.

Or you can you a template with the manu in the template or you can make the menu a library item and insert that in each file. Then you only have to update the library item or template and it will automatically update in all your other pages. Which HTML editor are you using?

Yeah, I'd recommend using PHP includes also.

-Copy your html for the link part then save it as php
-convert all your pages to php
-on these pages instead of the links tags, replace it with a php include linking to the link php file...

Now everytime you edit you links php file, it will update on all the php pages that have the include links...

There are a couple of ways that you can do this. CSS is just for visual formatting, so it won't help with this particular problem (although, if you used a link stylesheet to format the appearance you'd be able to change that just by changing one file). Here's another thread that talks about the same problem:
