<span tal:replace="here/standard_header"> header</span>

will do it, as Zope objects can "acquire" stuff further up the
tree. so in this case it will keep looking in parent folders until it
finds something called "standard_header".

By the way - if standard_footer contains markup rather than just text,
you'll want to use:

<span tal:replace="structure here/standard_header"> header</span>

This will make sure that the stuff from standard_header is not
html-quoted.
