I think he wants to know how to use the heaer/footer to all it's advantages.
do what I did. write you page, then make a table where u want the ubb, then cut the table into to parts in the missle of that table and put part a into header, and part b in footer.
so, it'd be like(using < instead of {:
Header-->
{table border="0" bgcolor="black"}
{tr}
{td}
<--Header
Footer-->
{/td}
{/td}
{/table}
<--Footer
simple as that
