i know, i only make an admin frontend.... u can do it the way u want :)
the include way:
inc_header.asp
line 299
change
"<a name=""top""></a><font face=""" & strDefaultFontFace & """>" & vbNewLine & _ vbNewLine & _ "<table align=""center"" border=""0"" cellPadding=""0"" cellSpacing=""0"" width=""100%"">" & vbNewLine & _
with
"<a name=""top""></a><font face=""" & strDefaultFontFace & """>" & vbNewLine %> <!--#INCLUDE FILE="inc_my_header.asp" --> <% Response.Write "<table align=""center"" border=""0"" cellPadding=""0"" cellSpacing=""0"" width=""100%"">" & vbNewLine & _
and in inc_footer.asp
in line 76
change
"</table>" & vbNewLine & _ "</font>" & vbNewLine & _
with
"</table>" & vbNewLine %> <!--#INCLUDE FILE="inc_my_footer.asp" --> <% Response.Write "</font>" & vbNewLine & _
now create inc_my_header.asp
and put there this code
<!-- HEADER -->
<%
Response.Write "<table align=""center"" border=""1"" cellPadding=""0"" cellSpacing=""0"" width=""766"">" & vbNewLine & _
"<tr>" & vbNewLine & _
"<td>" & vbNewLine
%>
<!-- END HEADER -->
and in inc_my_footer.asp
<!-- FOOTER -->
<%
Response.Write " </tr>" & vbNewLine & _
"</table>" & vbNewLine
%>
<!-- END FOOTER -->
now u only need to make the table u want in inc_my_header and close it in inc_my_footer
u can use pure html without response.write too
