and basically I have for each HTML page, a navigation menu. If I make a change to a link, or make a change to the list items, I have to make sure I change them on all the HTML pages.
This way you'll only have to edit one file which you're including. Although you'll have to configure your server or .htaccess to parse .html server-side the way it would .shtml

You could also have your server parse .html as .php, but that's a whole other thing, and it doesn't look like you're looking for something too complicated.

Is there an easier way ?
Thanks!
@thesocialdiner Sure. Change your site from html to PHP and use a simple include.
Since they're .html files, you may want to use SSI (server-side includes) to include the menu: http://www.yourhtmlsource.com/sitemanagement/includes.html

for me, simple edit - replace - all pages, works just fine. You can edit links, add links, etc. in all pages at once.
Wow awesome ideas. I'll check them all out. Thank you!!!
