Load HTML code from one file into another?

[Garek007]

Hi,

I have a series of pages with a side navbar. Rather than create this menu on
all pages I want one page for the menu and have my main page load the code from
that menu.html file. I could use frames, but don't want to.

So I've successfully written a javascript file and gotten my page to call that
file which then loads the appropriate html code into my TD. The problem is,
the html file isn't listening to the css stylesheet. I'm sure it has something
to do with the way I'm getting my code from one file to another. I've posted
the documents here for your viewing pleasure:

and here is the js file:

[url]http://www.dahlingroup.com/Boranda/css-scripts/main_menu.zip[/url]

note the path, the js file needs to be in a sub folder called css-scripts

thanks for any help you can offer

Google and read about using server-side includes as a much better way of
doing this.

thanks, I did see some server-side include stuff in my google search, but it sounded REALLY complicated.

It is MUCH simpler than your method. Read the tutorial here -
