Preserved Topic: Layers/Div's Question (Page 1 of 1)

OK I am designing my new website that has pop out layers (for navigation). I would like to make those div's external so that I only have to edit one set of div's and the HTML page would just call the div's. So how do I make those Div's external? Do you know of any tutorials on the web for what I want to do? Thanks

You gotta either use an IFRAME in the Divs or use an outside frame/window to load the page, and then take that pages' document.body.innerHTML as the content. Try the IFRAME.

I might interpret your question differently than Slime. If you want those DIVs external to the source HTML, you could use server includes like SSI/XSSI. If you're using PHP, that supports Includes as well. That allows you to have a separate file that contains that data, that you can call from your HTML.

Thank You it worked very well. What I did was created an HTML page titled Layers.shtml containing all of the layers but had no body or HTML tags on the page and then on the page that I wanted to use the layers for the navigation I used a SSI
<!--#include virtual="/Layers.shtml" --> and it worked great! Thanks For the help.

Edit: (didn't want sig)

Hmm I just noticed something It says on my first post on top "number of posts 66" and on this post it says "number of posts 66" shouldn't this be 67? Iono I am a detail freak. Just nevermind before I jabber on.

UBB also updates old post count (in the same thread), so that's why you see the same value on both posts (and your first post in this thread was no. 65, not no. 66).
