Header for ASP

Here's my situation. I'm creating a bunch of ASP pages and want a commom header to be included in all. In this header, I want the name of the page included. This is the cheap way that I'm currently doing it:


Page Title


where headstart.htm is basically:

<table border=0 width=600 align="center">
  <tr>
    <td width=20%>
      <img src="blah.jpg"></img>
    </td>
    <td width=80% align="center">
      Site Name<br>

and headend.htm is basically:

    </td>
  </tr>
</table>

What is the cleanest way to call a header that will be passed the title of the page and have it inserted?

Please let me know if this is unclear.

Thanks,
Anthony

Why not write a function? Or two for that matter?

PHP Code:


		
			
<%

' Of course your headers can be a little more detailed. 

Function makeHeader(title)

  response.write "<html><head><title>" & title  & "</title></head><body>" 

end function 



function makefooter()

  response.write "</body></html>" 

End function 

%>

' Now on all your pages

 <% makeHeader "Page Title " %>



 Content

 ....

....

....

end content



<% makefooter() %>
