so can anybody please give me any suggestion

NOTE:I am being using smarty and PHP so using appache server

As #include virtual .. is server side includes, which server are you using? There are few server(especially free-webhosts) that do not allow this function. — Ritesh Kumar Gupta, Apr 06 '13 at 10:01

Include another HTML file in a HTML file

OR

(#include file="footer.html")

OR

$("#header").load("header.html");

As you are Using WAMP Server, Check whether Your Server SSI(Server Side Includes) is enabled or not. If not, enable it by editing the configuration file. Following page contains tutorial on Setting Up SSI on WAMP.
Use 

Instead of



Apache tutorial on SSI stipulates the format requires a space character before the "-->" that closes the element.

Also, Where are you adding  , statement? The statement should be within <html> tag.

<html>
<head>
<title>My Title</title>
</head>
<body>

     <!--#include virtual="header.html" -->

 </body>
 </html>

Make sure index.html and header.html files are in Same Directory. If not try to use relative path.
Following page contains a lot of issues and common mistakes on include virtual directive.

If it doesn't work at all, then try to go for <?php include("header.html"); ?> .
