Including other HTML files

[tcrosswell]

I was wondering how can I include another HTML file? I have a table and in one of the colums I have a navigation link bar. I want to put that all into another HTML file and call it from each page. How could I do this?

Thanks

You could use an Iframe.

<iframe src=&quot;whatever.html&quot; frameborder=&quot;0&quot;></iframe>

It's IE 3+ and NN 6.0+, I think. If you can use SSI, there's a different way that can be supported by more browsers.

Thanks Rick

Yeah I had considered a iframe but as you say it is not really supported in earlier versions of Netscape
Also considered an <object> but that again has the same incompatibility problems!

Thanks though for your thoughts

Hi mate,

If the server supports SSI then use that..

Rename all your files to .shtml or whatever the server uses and include the following.

<!--#include file=&quot;navbar.html&quot; -->

Just place the code where you want the navbar to appear and then in the navbar.html file put the code for the navbar..

Hope this helps Wullie

I was using <object> until I found out about iframes. I switched when I found out how many more browsers support Iframes. My site doesn't support SSI, but if yours does, I think that's probably the better way.
