What I need to do is load / reload a div with a partial html file (no <html> or <body> tags) . The html file always has the same name, it just might change or be added to during a 24 hour period. I understand that I can do something like window.GetElementById(some-Div). innerHTML = "blah blah blah", but what I would like to do (upon initial load) is something like Window.GetElementById(some-div).src = "http://mysite.com/myfile", then, find someway to reload the div when needed. The reload would occur when a server side script runs that is called from an iframe, and the script writes some javascript code back to the page like parent.window.GetElementById(some-div).reload. BTW, I wanted to use a Div, instead of an iFrame, because the div would expand vertically. Does this have the slightest chance of working? Any suggestions? Loading...
