 If your server supports PHP (ask your host):
 - Place the menu code in a separate file: navbar.html
 - Make a new file test.php with content: <?php include "navbar.html"; ?>
 - Upload test.php to te server and open it
 - If the menu is shown: rename your pages to *.php and replace the menu code
 with the include string
