Sorry I don't have one...I'm just a thirteen year old student and would not like to spend money on unnecessary things for me right now.

Use a server side language like PHP or Ruby to put your similar code into templates that can be used within any page you want.

You make multiple html files and put them all in the same folder as the css. Name the html files the menu words. Link them in the html with anchor tags, using relative paths.

Is that what you were asking? Come to think of it I don't remember seeing this in any Treehouse video so far. It's a basic thing though. I learned it reading Head First HTML a couple of years ago.

What you're describing sounds like PHP includes. There's a video about it in the Beginner PHP Project series.
