web design help

[cmdavid]

k, i'm designing a new website and its been awhile since ive done this.. i know the basics of css and html and basic web design and have had no problem with the content...

my first question is that i have a menu/list/info on the left side of every webpage that has content that i will be changing quite frequently (at least once a week) and i want to only be able to change the content on one page.. i dont know if i can do that with some kind of id tag in a css stylesheet or what would be the best way to do that.. in the past i have used an iframe but i am sure that is not the best way to do it...

i have a blog on blogger.com and would like to implement the .xml into the website that i am making... i cant for the life of me figure out how to do this where the content on one webpage reflects directly the contents of this blog...

thanks in advance for any help...

1. You can use a server-side scripting language or you can use HTML server side includes.

2. Use a server-side scripting language, like PHP, ASP, JSP. Pick one, and google for RSS classes/scripts for that language.
