Can we get a link to your site to take a look at what you're trying to do? 

Joh6nn's reply has some good explanations and ideas, and I personally 
recommend either:
a) use server side (PHP, etc) and load the content dynamically into the 
content div.  This is what I do.  However, for a simple site, this is 
probably overkill, or just too much hassle to set up.

b) just load a new page for each...most likely there's very little reason not 
to - loading a navigation bar over each time you load the page isn't a huge 
bandwidth concern or anything, especially if you're not using images or flash 
(I hope you're not)
