Sounds like EXACTLY what frames or iframes are for.
Unless you use xmlhttp or a server process you would need to use frames

i have heard about this in another post, i havnt tested it but tell me if it does:

<script type=html src=imcludefile.html></script>

the person says that that will include that html file onto that page.

by: mplungjanPosted on 2003-07-14 at 13:50:17ID: 8920595

no way

 

by: dorwardPosted on 2003-07-14 at 14:06:28ID: 8920752

<script type=html src=imcludefile.html></script> won't do anything.

http://www.allmyfaqs.com/faq.pl?Include_one_file_in_another covers just about every option out there. The only variations I can see are the same technique implemented in a different language or tool for a couple of options.

<iframe src="http://www.msn.com" scrolling="auto"></iframe>

hope this helps,

Does your web server support some server side scripting language such as PHP or Perl? Does it support SSIs (Server Side Includes)? If not, you have two main routes, IFRAME and Javacript. I think IFRAME has already been explained in enough detail above, but JavaScript isn't.

If you wish to include very little content, you can use the following trick:

<script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript" src="littlecontent.js"></script>

Where littlecontent.js contains lines like:

document.write('<p>A paragraph of text</p>');
document.write('<img src="someimage.gif">');

Now the other option is to use XMLHttpRequest. It currently only works in later Mozillas, Netscape 7 and IE6.0. You should be able to find some example code with Google. Due to browser compatibility, server side scripting is my first recommendation and IFRAME is the second. Don't use JavaScript if you don't have to.

here is a simple php one I have used:

<?php

/*
INSTRUCTIONS:

If you want to frame a page outside of your site do the following.
http://www.yoursite.com/frame.php?mainsrc=http://www.outsidepage.com/index.html

If you want to frame a page within your site, in a different directory.
http://www.yoursite.com/frame.php?mainsrc=directoryname/index.html

If you want to frame a page within your site in the same directory.
http://www.yoursite.com/frame.php?mainsrc=index.html
*/

/***************************/
/*  Configurable Settings  */
/***************************/
$title = "";

$top_h = "70";
$main_h = "*";

$topsrc = "";  

$topsrc_name = "top";
$mainsrc_name = "main";

$topborder = "0";
$mainborder = "0";
$frameborder = "0";
/***************************/
/*   End Config Settings   */
/***************************/

echo "
<html>
<head>
<title>$title</title>
</head>
<frameset rows=\"$top_h, $main_h\" frameborder=\"$frameborder\">
<frame src=\"$topsrc\" scrolling=\"no\" noresize=\"noresize\" name=\"$topsrc_name\" border=\"$topborder\">
<frame src=\"$mainsrc\" scrolling=\"yes\" noresize=\"noresize\" name=\"$mainsrc_name\" border=\"$mainborder\">
</frameset>
</html>
";

?>

ah! you don't want frames. iframes would be the best option. the above script can be modified to to that semi-dynamically:
<?php

/***************************/
/*  Configurable Settings  */
/***************************/
$title = "";
$iframe_h = "200";
$iframe_w = "200";
$iframe_src = "somefile.htm";
$iframe_name = "name";
$iframe_border = "2";
/***************************/
/*   End Config Settings   */
/***************************/

echo "
<html>
<head>
<title>$title</title>
</head>
<h1>Page with iframe</h1>
<p>This is a page that has an iframe in it</p>
<iframe height=\"$iframe_h\" width=\"$iframe_w\" src=\"$iframe_src\" frameborder=\"$iframe_border\" name=\"$iframe_name\">
</iframe>
</html>
";
?>

The links of the ifram contents is hardcoded though.

Guys, he may not have a PHP host... here is what I would try man, most hosts have SSI, Server Side includes available. Since you don't want to use framse, and I don't blame you, simply do this...

<!-- #INCLUDE FILE="FILENAME" -->

You can do this anywhere inside your HTML source. If your host has SSI enabled, which most do, this would probably be the most optimal way for you to do what you are trying. ;) Good luck.
