I'm not clear on how this works. Do you mean if I develop it on a
computer that has access to a web server (so I can use SSI) then do
"backup this web site to disk", the pages that get saved will have the
appropriate code (my nav menus) already included? That would work fine
for my purposes...

hmm, I do have a Perl interpreter installed already, so I will look for
a script to do this (didn't know there was such a beast...:)
