There is a chunk of html links that I use in several pages. Do I need
to manually copy them to each of the other pages each time I add a
link or is there a way to have them saved in a file and dynamically
included in other pages?

Read up on server-side includes (if your server lets you use them),
external javascripts (if it doesn't), inline frames, and whatever I've
forgotton that everyone else will remind me of ....

In pure HTML code, no. The use of frames (a frameset or the iframe
element), client-side scripting (such as JavaScript) and/or inclusion
with

Please avoid Javascript if the links are at all important (for example,
navigation), as a small but significant number of visitors won't be
able to see them. More generally, Javascript shouldn't be used for
important features, unless a non-Javascript version is also made
available.
There's another thread active on this subject at the moment - 'Possible
to Insert One HTML Doc Into Another?'. Also the thread 'IFrame'
mentions some issues with iframes as opposed to includes.
