hello gurus,

i am new here and just learning xhmtl/css by myself.

im trying to edit a smarty based template theme and i am having difficulties editing it.

the theme files are divided by parts, like for instance, one html file for header and footer and index.

my problem with these files comes in when i try to edit the, say for instance the header.html:

in the header file, the opening div tags for a particular div block is in here, and then the closing div tags were in the footer file.

and then in the index.html file, footer and header file is included.

now, my main inquiry is, is there a way to joined these files together so i may edit it with ease? and then separate the files again later on?

or is there any way to edit these files with ease?
