Does HTML have an include file feature?

HTML doesn't, but your server probably does - look in its docs for "Server
Side Includes", or SSI.

The standard (the ISO HTML standard, based on the ISO SGML standard) has it,
and even the "standards" (IETF HTML 2.0 and W3C HTML specifications) have
it. Inclusion is a standard SGML feature, though somewhat esoteric (you
define the included data as an "entity" and use an entity reference).

It's just browsers that refused to implement HTML as an SGML application.

It's common to declare this defect as a virtue and claim that HTML was never
meant to allow inclusion.

P.S. Please don't use Big5 encoding in international groups.

It should be a web server issue, rather a browser...
