    Depends, really. Most WYSIWIG HTML editors like Dreamweaver support templates, where you just put some content into your design and be done with it. When you later change the template, all the pages based on it change too.

    Templates can also be skeleton pages where a server-side script fills in content.

    Depends on the type of template. You can use Notepad to create a template-based server-side scripted content management system.
