    This is what seems to work for me. I built a website for a small music festival and wanted to have the same headers across all the pages. I found out that I could write the header in JavaScript and just call it on each page, meaning that updates would only have to be done to one file.

    I copied the code from an example I found first, then tweaked it to suit my needs, and then played with adding and removing functions to see what they do. I then copied the format for the footer, and found a few other ways of tweaking the site with JavaScript.

    I’m still a long way from being proficient, but I understand a lot more than when I started :)
